Since May 7, the transaction volume of reserve real estate cotton has soared, and the average transaction price has stabilized at about 13,900 yuan/ton. In the week of May 7-11, 70,000 tons of real estate cotton was traded, and the turnover rate reached 62%, which refreshed the record for the 2017/2018 annual reserve real estate cotton week.
Judging from the quantity and quality of listed real estate cotton in April and May, the average daily listing volume is stable at 2.0-2.3 million tons, with little change in quality indicators. The industry generally believes that the recent increase in transactions in reserve real estate cotton is due to the improvement in the production and sales of textile enterprises, and the increase in spot prices. The purchase of textile companies has shifted to reserve real estate cotton. It is worth mentioning that, in mid-May 2017, a similar situation occurred in reserve real estate cotton.
In mid-May 2017, the transaction volume of reserve real estate cotton also rose significantly. Looking back at last year's market, from May 12 to May 16, 2017, Zheng cotton rose to drive spot prices to increase by RMB 300-400/ton. The sentiment of cotton companies reluctant to sell and stay up increased, and the value of reserve real estate cotton became more prominent. An effective and stable supply source, auction reserve real estate cotton is the best choice for spinning and lowering yarn companies.
This year, Zheng cotton rose earlier, but the increase was not as good as the same period of last year. The spot price rose by almost the same amount, and the spot price of real estate cotton rose by only RMB 100/ton, and that of Xinjiang cotton by RMB 200-300/ton. Although the increase in the price of cotton has slowed down, the purchasing attitude of textile companies has not relaxed and is still more cautious.
