Position of Cotton Is Strong
Latham Alexander & Co report the cotton market as exceptionally strong with prices for future delivery in New York higher than four years prior. They note a world visible supply of 3,810,000 bales on January 6, down from last year, and record substantial declines in exports and total stock compared with previous years. The analysis attributes the firmness to expectations of a small crop, continued world demand, and South’s limited delivery, with spinners likely to demand more as prices remain stable amid European shortages.
