02 Feb 2016 − Animated discussions are in progress about prices on Italy’s recycled corrugated case material market at the start of the new year. However, EUWID sources are divided about the price dip seen in January. While one side reported sporadic price cuts that did not apply throughout the market yet, the other side mentioned a clear slump in prices for brown grades that had started back in December and would likely continue in the weeks ahead.

Feb 2, 2016 @ 01:51 PM. The New York Times Company is set to report its fourth quarter earnings on Thursday, February 4th. The company successfully increased its digital user base to over 1 million in 2015, causing circulation revenues to stabilize through the first nine months through September. On the other hand, advertising revenues declined by 9% year-on-year (y-o-y) because of a decrease in print advertising revenues from International New York Times. NYT is expected to continue to add more digital subscribers to its existent subscriber base in the fourth quarter, such that its circulation revenues remain steady. However, the company may experience headwinds in advertising revenues due to a change in the industry-wide standard on ad viewability.
