PFL Weekly RIN Recap
Desk: 239-390-2885
Mar 05, 2015 to Mar 11, 2015
Another uneventful week in terms of news and rumors in the RIN market. Market participants continue to diligently wait for the "Spring" release of the RVO numbers from the EPA. On a more interesting note, some 2014 D3 RINs have exchanged hands a couple times in the market this week. The trades occurred at $.7225 for volumes a bit under 1 million. The market buyers have been in limbo for some time trying to understand the true value along with vetting process of the producers of the D3s. With more production entering the market, we feel the D3s will push to create a daily bid/ask that will enhance transparency and ultimately increase the liquidity of these rins. The 2015 D3s were being offered yesterday at $.805 with buyers interest increasing at that value. The 2015 D4 RINs continue their snail like slide down on values. With liquidity drying up over the last couple of weeks, we have dropped from $.87 down to current lows of $.805. Daily volumes have been averaging 2‐3 million . Some are surprised by the continued decrease in values in relation to the HOBO spread, but the market will dictate what it wants regardless of technical or fundamentals at times. 2014‐2015 vintage D6 RINs continue to dominate the daily trading averaging 15 million per day. The 2015s have a slight edge in daily volume over the 2014s, but buyers of the 2014s will continue to jockey their positions now and for sometime even after the official EPA announcement. D6 - 2014
