  • Cotton Crossroads: Navigating the 63-Cent Neighborhood
    2025/12/18
    https://www.instagram.com/vanessaclarkipaiThis is your Daily Cotton Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.You are listening to the Daily Cotton Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark. I am Vanessa, and today we are talking about what is happening right now in the global cotton market and the latest cotton price.Let us start with the headline number, because I know that is what you came for. According to the latest Intercontinental Exchange data, the benchmark Cotton Number 2 futures price is trading right around 63 and a half cents per pound. TradingView and MacroMicro both show today’s front month cotton futures hovering near 63 point 5 cents, just slightly above the recent two week low around 63 point 1 cents per pound.Market analysts at Barchart note that cotton futures have been showing slight gains today, up roughly 5 to 7 points at midday, which is basically a modest bump, not a huge rally. TradingView reports that futures have been stuck in a narrow range, just above 63 cents, helped a bit by firmer energy prices and a slightly stronger dollar.Zooming out, Cotton Incorporated’s Monthly Economic Letter for December points out that most global cotton benchmarks have been pretty stable over the past month. The widely watched Cotlook A Index has been drifting in a band in the low to mid 70 cent per pound range, while the New York Intercontinental Exchange March contract recently tested levels near 65 cents per pound before easing back closer to today’s 63 cent neighborhood.Regionally, Fibre2Fashion reports that Indian spot prices for Shankar 6 quality cotton are holding near 74 cents per pound, while Chinese prices are a bit firmer, with the Chinese Cotton Index around the mid 90 cent per pound area in international terms. That price gap between the United States futures market and Asian physical markets is something to watch if you are a mill buyer or a merchant thinking about import and export opportunities.Now, what does this actually mean for you if you are a cotton farmer, a textile buyer, or just trying to understand cotton price trends and cotton market news.First, prices around 63 to 64 cents per pound are on the low side compared with the last few years. Analysts like Dr O A Cleveland, writing in Cotton Grower, have highlighted that soft demand has been the big story. He notes that sluggish mill use and cautious purchasing have helped push the market back below the 64 cent level more than once this month. So the main driver right now is not a shortage of cotton, it is a shortage of demand.Second, when the market is stuck in a tight range, like we are seeing now, it often means traders are waiting for a new piece of information to push prices up or down. That could be a new set of export sales numbers, a change in global economic outlook, or fresh news from major textile importing countries like China, Bangladesh, India, or Turkey.Here are a few quick, practical takeaways you can use today.If you are a grower looking at marketing decisions, a flat market near 63 cents means timing becomes your main tool. Consider breaking your sales into smaller chunks instead of pricing everything on one day. That way, you spread your risk if the market suddenly dips a cent or two.If you are a mill or a brand buying cotton, this kind of sideways market can be a chance to lock in some volume while prices are still relatively low historically. You may not catch the absolute bottom, but locking in near 63 to 64 cents could look smart if demand improves in the next year.If you are tracking cotton for investing, pay close attention to weekly export sales from the United States Department of Agriculture and to macroeconomic news about consumer spending on apparel and home textiles. Stronger clothing sales usually translate into better cotton demand down the line.Before we wrap up, let us recap the key number one more time so it sticks with you. The current cotton futures price, based on the benchmark Cotton Number 2 contract, is trading close to 63 point 5 cents per pound, with global cotton price indices like the Cotlook A Index in the low to mid 70 cent range and Asian physical prices slightly firmer than United States futures.That is it for today’s episode of the Daily Cotton Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark.

  • Cotton Watch: Savannah's Surge, China's Mixed Signals, and Your Next Move
    2025/12/17

    This is your Daily Cotton Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

    Hey friend, welcome back to the Daily Cotton Price Tracker. I am Vanessa Clark, and today we are diving into the latest cotton prices and what they might mean for growers, traders, and anyone watching the cotton market.

    Let us start with the headline number. According to Trading Economics, the global benchmark cotton contract is trading around 63.27 cents per pound, up roughly a quarter of a percent on the day. That puts cotton about 1 percent higher than a month ago, but still a little more than 7 percent cheaper than it was a year ago. So we are in this interesting spot where prices have firmed slightly in the short term but are still under pressure compared to last season.

    On the fundamentals side, the United States Department of Agriculture December World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates report points to a weaker global cotton outlook for the twenty twenty five to twenty twenty six season. USDA trimmed global production to just under one hundred twenty million bales and also lowered global consumption, reflecting softer mill demand in places like Brazil, the United States, and parts of Central America.

    Export demand is another weak link. USDA weekly export data, summarized by Fibre2Fashion, shows Upland cotton export sales running well below last year, as mills remain cautious and yarn demand stays subdued. At the same time, the Port of Savannah just reported that it is now the nation’s busiest port for cotton shipments, helped by strong demand from the Indian subcontinent and the Mediterranean. So even with softer overall demand, some trade routes are heating up.

    In China, price action has been mixed. SunSirs reports a benchmark raw cotton price around fifteen thousand one hundred thirty five yuan per ton, up about one point seven percent from the start of the month, while Xinhua notes that Zhengzhou cotton futures for May twenty twenty six recently closed a bit lower, around thirteen thousand nine hundred twenty five yuan per ton. That tells you traders are still wrestling with how tight or loose the balance will be next year.

    So what can you do with this if you are a grower or a buyer watching daily cotton prices

    If you are a producer, this mid sixty cents level is not stellar, but the slightly tighter global balance projected by USDA could offer some support on rallies. It may be a good time to review your marketing plan, look at your cost of production, and think about layering in sales or using futures or options to protect a floor while leaving some room for upside if prices pop on a weather scare or stronger demand.

    If you are a buyer or in the textile space, today’s cotton price around sixty three cents per pound, combined with soft export sales, suggests you may still have some leverage. Many mills are buying hand to mouth, but if your margins allow it, you might consider locking in a portion of your needs on dips, especially if you are concerned about future supply tightness or logistical bottlenecks at key export ports like Savannah.

    For traders and analysts, keep an eye on three key data points over the next few weeks. First, the next USDA export sales reports, which will show whether mills are stepping back in. Second, any revisions to US and global production in upcoming WASDE updates. And third, Chinese futures and import trends, since China remains a huge driver of international cotton prices.

  • Cotton Cents: Vanessa's Daily Market Minute | Futures Hovering Near 64¢/Lb
    2025/12/16

    This is your Daily Cotton Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.

    Hey my friend, welcome back to Daily Cotton Price Tracker. I am Vanessa Clark, and today we are talking about what is going on right now in the cotton market and what it means for you if you grow cotton, buy cotton, or just watch cotton futures.

    Let us start with the headline number. According to Trading Economics and MacroMicro, benchmark cotton futures are trading right around 64 cents per pound, roughly 63 point 9 cents, after slipping a bit in today’s session. Farm Progress shows the nearby United States Cotton Number 2 contract trading in the upper 60 cent range, with the front month around 68 cents per pound, also a touch softer on the day.

    So what is driving that cotton price action. Market Minute and other analysts describe this as a range bound cotton market, with prices hovering near 64 cents a pound and likely to stay in this zone into 2026. High global stocks are still hanging over the market, and the latest United States Department of Agriculture supply and demand updates have pushed world production slightly above consumption again. That oversupply caps big rallies, even as modest global economic growth gives just enough demand to keep prices from collapsing.

    On the demand side, recent export sales reports have been underwhelming. Barchart notes that weekly cotton export sales have been soft and that speculative funds are still heavily net short. That tells us big traders are betting on continued weakness or sideways trade. At the same time, the Adjusted World Price sits near the low 50 cent per pound area, which squeezes grower margins and makes many farmers reluctant sellers at current futures levels.

    So what can you do with cotton around 64 cents. If you are a producer, this is a classic risk management environment. Talk with your merchandiser about scaling in small hedges on any rallies into the upper 60s or low 70s, instead of waiting for a big breakout that may not come soon. If you are a mill or textile buyer, this is a window to lock in a portion of your cotton needs while prices are still relatively low, especially if your business planning assumes higher long term prices.

    Looking a bit further out, several industry outlooks see global cotton consumption growing slowly through 2030, helped by sustainability trends and increased demand for responsibly sourced cotton. That does not help today’s cash flow, but it does suggest cotton has a future beyond this slump, especially for growers and brands leaning into traceable and certified fiber.
