New Thermal Coal FOB USEC symbol

The following Thermal Coal FOB USEC symbol has been created. It will appear in Market Data category CI, and it is a mirror copy of the symbol COUSC00 which is found in Market Data category CO.

The above heat adjusted netback values are a replacement for FOB US EAST COAST (Basis 6,500 kcal/kg NAR, 1% Sulfur) CUFEC00, CSDAA00; which were discontinued due to significantly reduced spot export transaction liquidity in the low price environment for seaborne thermal coal. It is scheduled to begin updating May 31st, 2016
