The Cotton Situation PDF Download

Excerpt from The Cotton Situation, Vol. 15: January 27, 1938 Domestic cotton prices strengthened somewhat during December and the first part of January. On January ll prices of inch cotton at the 10 designated markets averaged cents per pound which was b/m cent per pound higher than in the early part of December and 1 cent above the low point made in the first part of November. Between January 6 and January 2m spot prices of Middling inch in these markets ranged between 8% and 8 cents, the highest level since the latter part of September. Factors which appear to have been of some importance in strengthen ing prices during recent weeks include the reduction in estimates of cotton production in foreign countries, the continued large movement of raw cotton out of trade channels into Government-loan stocks, and a somewhat more favorable trend in commodity and security prices.
