POP Payment between Christmas and New Year. 
12-29-2025
1.98 cents from pre-Christmas 2.01.  The one day calculation indicates a drop in POP/LDP payment.  Another short week for the market means the calculation will have fewer days in the average, however with a fairly flat market for the rest of this week, we may see a drop of close to a penny.
