ConventionalCotton Prices on International and Domestic Markets (Weekly)
New York cotton futures fell 4.6% last week and returned to their early July level. The US dollar rose after the Federal Reserve raised interest rates. New crop cotton is also reaching the market in the United States and Asia. Long-term fundamentals still point to firm prices, as world consumption exceeds production this season. Our report gives a comprehensive view of the global cotton market with New York futures and benchmark indicators, including for China, India, Pakistan, Turkey and Brazil.
ConventionalPolyester Market Prices in Asia (Weekly)
Crude oil eased last week but Brent is still trading above 100 dollars a barrel. Renewed Iranian attacks may limit the rise in supplies expected in the coming months. Polyester chain prices in China held at high levels before the National Day holidays, with the exception of MEG. Supply tightness may again support prices when China returns on Thursday. Fiber demand is also expected to recover after a weak start of the peak season. This weekly report covers the full polyester chain, from crude oil and paraxylene to PTA, MEG, polyester chips, staple fibers and filament yarns, with price indicators for China, India and Pakistan.
ConventionalCotton Yarn Prices: Domestic Markets (Monthly)
Cotton prices fell across Asia in September after New York's correction. Indian spinners lowered their yarn prices in response. Chinese yarn prices held, as mills had already cut their operating rates. Pakistan remained firm, although local cotton has now started to fall.
ConventionalSpandex Chain Prices in China (Monthly)
Spandex prices did not move in China in September. Raw material costs rose sharply, led by BDO. Weak demand in the peak season prevented producers from raising their offers. Their margins narrowed as a result.
ConventionalWool Prices In Australia and South Africa (Weekly)
Australian wool prices fell for a fourth week in a row, and the decline pushed the market to its lowest US dollar level since March. Buyers remain short of orders and only compete for the best fine wool, while growers increasingly refuse to sell at falling prices. South Africa followed the same path.
ApparelEmerging Currencies: Jan-Sep 2026 (Monthly)
The US Fed was forced to raise its benchmark rates by 25 points in September to limit inflation triggered by US tariffs and the Middle East crisis. As a result, the US dollar rose against a large number of currencies. The ranking over the first three quarters of the year shows sharply diverging trends among emerging currencies. Most importantly, the Chinese currency rose by 4.35%.
ConventionalCotton & Polyester Price Comparison (Monthly)
Cotton lost ground in September after its summer surge. Polyester fiber moved the other way as the Middle East conflict pushed crude oil higher. Cotton remains far more expensive than polyester staple fiber in China, India and Pakistan. But the gap narrowed in all three markets.
ConventionalTextile Fiber Price Comparison (Monthly)
Fiber prices moved in opposite directions in September. Cotton fell sharply as speculative selling erased the previous rally. Polyester and nylon surged with crude oil on renewed tension in the Middle East. Both markets now point to lower fiber prices in the coming weeks.
