New York Wool Market Trends Amid War Trade Shifts
The New York Futures market remains up about five percent from August lows but sits around one percent below late 1945 peaks. Canadian and British demand, Dominion mill expansion, and strategic wool storage affect supply. Wool output in Australia and New Zealand has grown dramatically since 1934 and 1914 baselines, while wartime needs push mill equipment and exports. Recovery postwar will hinge on civilian demand and European consumption, with Sydney catalogues noted for October.
