Bond Market Turmoil and Sterling Slide Across Markets
The bond market shows a downward trend with government and foreign issues slipping. Sterling weakens to 3.6914 as traders anticipate faster rate breaks, while industrials and rails hold firmer though overall turnover remains moderate. A general expectation of a spring turnaround is echoed, with caution on later rate adjustments and credit conditions lingering through March.

New York Cotton and Grain Report Sees Sharp Market Break
The government’s trap estimate of 11,630,000 bales preceded a steep cotton decline as foreign exchange weakness and uncertain U S policy weigh on markets. March fell from 44.60 to 37.20, later trading near 39.95, with a broad easy tone across commodities. Corn weakened on heavy breaks in oil and grain sectors, while wheat and oats showed mixed to lower quotes amid the market’s broad weakness. NY grain listings show No 2 red wheat around 2.36 1/4, oats at 0.804, with additional notes on futures and spot levels across corn and oats.
