Verle Sutton, editor of the Reel Time Report, will detail his 2012 price and demand outlook for newsprint and value-added publication papers in an i2live webcast, exclusively for readers of the Reel Time Report and industry professionals that follow these paper markets.

Verle’s presentation will address issues facing producers, publishers, direct marketers, and investors:

• Will the Stadacona closure result in a newsprint shortage or higher newsprint prices? Will it be temporary?
• What is the primary cause of the sharp decline in magazine ad pages and catalog mailings that began again in Q2/11.
• Does a change in input or manufacturing cost actually impact the price of paper?
• What is the price and demand outlook for publication-grade papers in 2012?
• How much can the market expect demand to change in 2013 and 2014 for newsprint and value-added groundwood grades?

Verle will take audience comments and questions after the presentation.
