The panorama is still satisfactory but there are fewer smiles than in Week 12. The northern European markets are much less tense while the balance has become noticeably fragile in France and Italy. On the one hand demand slowed as the business week was shortened by Easter and retail prices were very high. On the other, supply increased very slightly. The expected decrease in shipments from Ecuador has not yet happened; shipments from this source have even been about 5% above average for the last few weeks. In addition, the deficit in arrivals from Colombia and the French West Indies is tending to decrease. Prices have remained very firm in northern Europe. Prices in France have been more flexible and a decrease has been noted in Italy.
