Gritiah coal crop report shakes cotton market fluctuations
New York July 1. Early week advances in cotton futures faded as the government crop report moderated expectations. October contracts rose to 12.55 then eased near 13.0% ahead of the figures, with the market steadier later as traders priced in a likely ample supply. Officials cited a 69.2% condition rating near private estimates, acreage down 28.4 percent, and yield projected at 8,433,000 bales including linters. Domestic use and exports for the year to July 1 may reach about 11 million bales, suggesting stronger demand later, while abundant cotton and the coal settlement influence liver pool spot activity.
