Recent trends: boom and bust in the coke market

2008 was a year of spectacular contrast in the coke market. The first six months of the year was characterised by soaring prices, which reached record highs of $740/t fob China, amid exploding cost pressures and run away steel prices. By mid-2008 prices for most steel grades were trading above $1,000/t as supply struggled to match the rampant levels of demand, fuelled by a boom in Asia and the Middle East.
