Wool values stabilising amid modest price shifts worldwide
Australia's wool clip forecasts a smaller yield while prices for merino wools stay 20 to 40 percent above mid October 1950 levels. Crossbreds remain 25 to 36 percent lower year on year but up to 75 percent above similar 1948 levels. Analysts caution against over optimism as boom figures fade. Climatic and demand factors shaping US and Britain purchases could influence mills and traders seeking steady, not explosive, prices. Winchcombe Carson Ltd notes these dynamics and calls for price stability to restore confidence.
