Data Access Times


The above is the official release time schedule for daily data delivery. The times shown are for the typical user interested in a sampling of markets around the world. Ninety-five percent of the time, CSI will deliver data at a prescribed mean time as listed. To avoid a repeat call due to missing data, do not access your daily file until after the posted release time.

If you happen to receive no data for a particular commodity that settled late or was not quoted by your collection time, the omission will be corrected with the following day's update. After that, corrections, additions and changes are handled through our automatic correction file. We suggest an update time of 8 p.m. eastern time if you require the most complete data set possible.

If you find that certain commodities of interest to you are usually unavailable when you call for your update, you'll need to choose one of these three options: 1) adjust your update time to accommodate the missing markets; 2) continue retrieving your updates at the normal time, but wait until the following day to get the late data in your normal update; or 3) make a second call after 8 p.m. eastern time, which will assure you have the most complete data available for the day.

Hours of Data Availability


The CSI host computer systems are available for access 24 hours per day 7 days per week with random one-to-two minute periods of required downtime for file maintenance. File maintenance will consume approximately 20 minutes per week.
