Winter Weight Change Goes into Effect Today
Every year on October 1, the Price Guide is modified to reflect heavier winter weights. Thursday, selections without trades reported will go to “0.” It will take at least a week to build up a weekly comparison price.
Winter and summer weights for selections can be found at the bottom of this page under “The Jacobsen Rules for Reporting Hide Trades.”
The Price Guide will once again be modified on April 1, 2021 when we switch back to summer weights.
Friday Early Publication Hours in Effect — Friday’s Trade Reporting Deadline 2 p.m. CST
Friday publication hours are in effect. The deadline for trade reporting will be at 2 p.m. CST with publication of the Hide & Leather Price Guide/Commentary soon after.
