Average Price Notes:

• Reminder: The numbers and percentages in parenthesis are the average 2015 prices as of 1/24/15 compared to the last time the average prices were recorded, which in this case was last week on 1/17/15. So this tells you how much the past week has affected the yearly average prices so far.
• Gasoline and Bauxite have switched spots (4th and 5th), and Lead and Oil have switched spots (9th and 10th).

 

Weekly Average: 01/18/2015 - 01/24/2015

10) Oil: $526 (24) --- (104.8%)

11) Food: $110 (-6) --- (94.8%)

 

Weekly Average Notes:

• This is a new statistic which takes the average prices for just the past week, in this case between 1/18/15 and 1/24/15 (and including both dates).
• The numbers and percentages in parenthesis are the weekly average compared to the 2015 average as of 1/24/15 and can be used to tell you how far off the total average the weekly prices were. 
• As always feel free to chime in on the usefulness/uselessness of this stat, I haven't quite decided if I like it or not. Also any tweaks or other ideas are always welcome.

Adjusted Resource Profit: 01/25/2015

(0) - 2) Bauxite: $719

(1) - 3) Coal: $632

(0) - 7) Oil: $437

(1) - 8) Iron: $424

(-1) - 9) Uranium: $396

(0) - 10) Munitions: $225

Profit Notes

• Coal and Gasoline each moved up a spot into 3rd and 4th while Steel moved down two spots to #5.
• Uranium and Iron also swapped positions. 
• Oddly, although Uranium has sat firmly at the top spot for resource price it has now reached the 9th spot for profitability. It's an expensive resource to mine.

 

Guild Master's Notes:

As you can see the "Adjusted Resource Profit" did in fact make it into this daily prices report. I changed my mind partly because I found this to be one of the more useful statistics and partly because what I had planned on replacing it with I found to be fairly unhelpful. So I will continue this in the daily reports. As always suggestions/improvements/comments are always welcome. In particular I'd like to improve the "Adjusted Resource Profit" stat, but I am unsure how at the current point. I shall keep yall updated.

Profit Notes

• Surprisingly no change in positions today!

• Aluminum and Bauxite continue to dominate the top two spots. Despite a relatively high coal price on the market I predict the top two will remain unchanged for the near future.

Profit Notes

• Lead overtakes Steel for the #4 spot.
• Oil takes the #6 spot away from it's product, Gasoline.

GM's Remarks:

 

As of today, manufactured resources are ranked #1, #5, #7 and #10. This may be an indication that a large portion of nations are making manufactured resources domestically while possibly importing the necessary raw materials. Although P&W's player base is growing each day, there is a significant number of people who all started within the first few days/weeks of this round and what we may be seeing is this 'generation' moving towards manufacturing and tax income based economies and away from raw resource production. Perhaps. Either way it will be interesting to see, now that most nations are at peace what kind of base-line prices are established and how that changes based on the demographics of the game. I look forward to finding out. .

For instance this week's average price for food was $113 but the total average price for 2015 of Food is actually $116. So -3 means Food is currently $3 below the 2015 average price which is approximately 97.7% of that value. 
• Steel took the #2 spot from Aluminum this week.
• Lead and Iron each gained a spot while Munitions lost two.
• Lead's average price this week was considerably higher than it's average in 2015 while Uranium's was significantly lower.

• Uranium and Bauxite were both lower than the total average this week and have thus brought their averages down.
• Lead and Gasoline have both had average price increases as a result of a decent week's worth of prices.
• Steel has overtaken Aluminum for 2nd place in total average price.

G.M.'s Notes:

No changes this week, although I still do intend to make some, I just ran out of time today. Hope yall are having a nice weekend and enjoy the Superbowl if you are choosing to watch it. Also, Go Pats.

Profit Notes

• With a massive increase in market price today Coal is able to jump from the 3rd spot to the #1 spot in Adjusted Resource Profits. Coal passed both Bauxite and it's product, Aluminum.
• Today also marks the first time since I've been recording this stat that Aluminum has fallen from the top spot.

G.M's Notes:

I felt I should write a little note here due to how wacky of a day on the market today ended up being. At the time of this posting prices seem to have returned to a near 2/3/15 level (aka the day before). This market hiccup could have occurred due to a number of factors I and I won't lie and say I was online all day to be able to pinpoint the cause. We'll see tomorrow how much the prices have continued to change if this was a single day occurrence or more than that. Feel free to put down any ideas in the comments if you feel like it, I'm kinda curious what people think. It's possible this was just a fluke or that a few suppliers got into an undercutting war, then again this may be symptoms of a flooded manufacturing market, or perhaps even a purposeful market (and in particular war goods) destabilization attempt by one or more players (albeit that might be a little far-fetched). Either way I'm interested to see what happens next. (That was the part where I get yall hooked to see the next installment ).

Profit Notes

• Finally tweaked this stat so that the newly added percentage represents how much of each resource's selling price can be accounted for using the adjusted resource profit stat. As an example, Aluminum is currently selling on average at $1,413, meanwhile the adjusted profit for one unit of Aluminum is $913. The adjusted profit number is 64.5% of the price on the market. This might not be the most useful statistic but I find it mildly interesting so I have included it, feel free to comment on it if you so please.
• Gasoline passes Uranium for the #7 spot. 
• Coal and Oil are currently garnering the most percentage profit, each hovering near 90%. 
• Predictably Munitions and Uranium are the worst performers when it comes to what percent of each unit's price is profit
