Increased volatility?

Posted by Anonymous at November 03. 2007
Will financial investors in the steel futures market increase price volatility?

Financial investors are blocked from providing price inputs into the SteelBenchmarker indexes, so while their trading activity in the futures product on the NYMEX can increase the price throughout the life of the contract, the ultimate settlement price will be provided solely by steel industry participants, and thus will revert to the actual market price for steel.
