IDEX Price Report for 1 July: More Losses as Uncertainty Continues

(IDEX Online) - There were many losses in June, as there were in May. The war continues in Ukraine, as do the sanctions on Russian rough, and Indian manufacturers are still filling the supply gaps, especially among smalls, by switching to lab grown. In May we saw more increase among goods over 2.0-cts seeking refuge from the stock market. In June those increases were limited to goods over 4.0-cts.
