Cotton and commodity markets in a dull trade period
The cotton market remains dull with limited spot purchases and light futures activity. Reports show prices for Upland and Gulf cotton mostly steady near 7.33 to 11 cents, while a wide array of goods from drugs to dry goods and groceries see sparse activity, steady prices, and steady freight and shipping rates across Atlantic routes.
Manufacturers Hopeful After Spring Trade Slowdown
Manufacturers believe spring trade will rebound to normal levels after a backward start. Farmers refuse to sell grain at low prices, money scarcity stalls circulations and collections, causing trade stagnation. Footnotes note boots and shoes shipments to outside New England fell from 45,312 to 37,804 cases, and total shipments since January 1 dropped to 999,677 from 2,311,900 year over year.
