146. Newswire Update: Nothing Burger? The Market's Holding Steady
Friday, 8 May, 2026
The crew is back from back-to-back trips and running on fumes and good intel. Chelsea just got home from the NAWLA Regional in Vancouver, BC, where 210 industry insiders gathered to talk about the very real pressure Canadian producers are under - and spoiler: it wasn't a warm and fuzzy room. Natalie swung through Louisiana for her CFO 10-group and got a firsthand look at how different logging operations down South are compared to the heavily regulated Pacific Northwest. Then Trent takes the wheel and runs through a busy week: UFP and Carter Lumber making moves on the M&A front, Canadian curtailments, Q1 earnings check-ins on some familiar names, and lumber prices doing their best impression of a flatline. Mortgage rates are also doing that thing again where they tease us and then walk it back. All that plus Mother's Day plans nobody has figured out yet. Don't forget to like, subscribe, and reach out to the crew at lumberslingers@gmail.com - they actually want to hear from you.
