Welcome to turbulent times. After what was generally regarded as a great year for the cabling industry 2007 has started rather shakily. Copper is dominant factor with the price falling and now starting to recover.
If you are buying power cables there are some great deals around at the moment, with distributors clearing stocks that were purchased when copper was high - even if it means taking a loss. Cleveland Cables in particular are passing on savings brought about by the drop in copper price.
It will be interesting to see if prices start moving back up again to follow the copper rises but for the moment if you have a decent enquiry for armoured cable you could make some real savings. Just be careful not to slip on the blood!
