North Zone: US Cotton Futures : Cotton futures post biggest gains in two weeks: February 03, 2016 – Cotton futures surged on Monday to their highest single-session gains in two weeks, lifted by a weaker dollar and end-user buying at low price levels and bucking a rout across most commodities. Still, prices remained within the same tight range they have been trading in for months. “They’re not chasing it higher,” said Chris Kramedjian, a risk management consultant with INTL FCStone in Nashville, Tennessee, noting that physical buying evaporated at the upper end of the day’s range. “We’re still in the middle of the range.” March cotton on ICE Futures US settled up 0.66 cent, or 1.1 percent, at 61.79 cents per lb. It traded within a range of 60.85 and 62.00 cents a lb. Total futures market volume rose by 1,696 to 38,571 lots.

Copyright Reuters, 2016 Slow off-take on cotton market: February 2nd, 2016 – KARACHI: Much of the trading activity remained around low quality cotton on Monday as the availability of quality lint is becoming difficult with each passing day. Floor brokers said that out of 1.1 million bales held by ginners, only 30 per cent of stocks are of quality lint. On an average 1.2m bales are consumed per month by the spinning industry under normal circumstances, but current depressed demand on the cotton yarn market is keeping cotton off-take slow, they added. With around seven months for the arrival of cotton next crop (2016-17) there should have been frenzied buying from spinners. The spinning industry continues to import cotton from Indian and only last week around one million bales were imported, brokers added. According to market sources, most deals finalised between spinners and ginners were in lower quality cotton priced at Rs5,550 to R5s,650 per maund. The Karachi Cotton Association (KCA) cut its spot rates by Rs50 per maund to Rs5,400. Major deals on ready counter were: 3,700 bales from Sanghar (Rs4,550 to Rs4,725 per maund), 400 bales from Shahdadpur (Rs4,750), 600 bales from Burewala (Rs4,850), 400 bales from Fort Abbas (Rs5,350), 400 bales from Multan (Rs5,400), 400 bales from Layyah (Rs5,500), 600 bales from Mianwali (Rs5,500 to Rs5,550), 600 bales from Yazman Mandi (Rs5,650), 1,000 bales from Rahimyar Khan (Rs5,650). China to lose, to Vietnam, top rank among cotton importers: 2nd Feb 2016 – China, which last season lost to India the title of the world’s top cotton producer, is to give up top rank in imports too, the International Cotton Advisory Committee said, citing the enhanced competitiveness of polyester. The committee deepened to 40%, from 34%, its forecast for the top in Chinese cotton imports in 2015-16, taking the estimate from 1.2m tonnes to 1.08m tonnes (5.0m bales). Imports at that level – besides coming in below expectations of commentators such as the US Department of Agriculture, which forecasts them at 5.5m bales — would be the lowest in 13 years. And they would, on ICAC projections, demote China to equal second, with Bangladesh, on cotton imports, behind Vietnam, which is expected to buy 1.1m tonnes this season. “Cotton imports by Vietnam in the first four months of 2015-16,” which began in August, “totalled 327,000 tonnes, while those by China totalled 247,000 tonnes,” the committee noted. |
