Correction to rationale of nickel mixed hydroxide precipitate payable indicator for February 26

Fastmarkets has corrected the rationale for its MB-NIO-0004 Nickel mixed hydroxide precipitate payable indicator, % London Metal Exchange, cif China, Japan and South Korea that was published incorrectly on Wednesday February 26.

Fastmarkets has corrected the rationale for its MB-NIO-0004 Nickel mixed hydroxide precipitate payable indicator, % London Metal Exchange, cif China, Japan and South Korea that was published incorrectly on Wednesday February 26.

The rationale mistakenly stated that the nickel mixed hydroxide precipitate payable indicator was unchanged on February 26 when it had widened upward.

The amended rationale now reads as:

“The nickel MHP payable was assessed at 79.5-80.5% on Wednesday February 26, widening upward from the previous session.”

The published price is unaffected by this change.

This price is part of the Fastmarkets base metals package.
