One source said that the 13-cent fall in the Australian eastern market indicator at the end of last week was "seen as a further reason for keeping quoted prices competitive." Most tops were quoted unchanged at last week's low levels while 70s Super and 64s Blended lost two pence per kg. But trade sources said the reductions failed to draw buying interest. Retailer resistance to any increase in prices is proving resilient and even sterling's weakness on Friday was unable to move the market, they said. The only bright spot is the call for deliveries which most sellers reported to be fairly consistent, but the lack of new business remains a constant theme. 301135 MET jan 97
