This week: There is the time before the holidays, during the holidays and after the holidays. Each has its own laws and imposes different moods on the market. Whereas in the past it was only a question of supply and demand, and everyone formed a picture of the situation, today external factors, at least in our opinion, play a much more weighty role. Activity in the market itself has almost come to a standstill in Europe at the moment. Meat production is still going on and so hides and skins are still coming in, but basically the communication that normally forms market opinion has come to a standstill owing to the summer holidays.
