      <abstract>Real-time price data collected by the Boston Market News Reporter.
The NOAA Fisheries' "Fishery Market News" began operations in New York City on February 14, 1938. The primary function of this joint Federal/industry program is to provide accurate and unbiased reports depicting current conditions affecting the trade in fish and fishery products.
The Boston and New York Market News Reports are now hosted by the Northeast Fisheries Science Center. Please navigate to the URL below for 2014 and newer data:

      <notes>Market News takes the pulse of the market. Other services may try to diagnose the market, but Market News merely observes, records, and reports on current conditions. With offices located in Boston, Long Beach, New Orleans, New York, and Seattle the Market News service gathers and reports on a wealth of information.</notes>
