Transport demand and capacity resources both decreased slightly, and the index is expected to fluctuate upward in the short term [6] - In September 2025, China's cotton cloth imports were 3628.19 million meters (up 17.58% year - on - year, down 8.28% month - on - month), 4603.92 tons (up 11.63% year - on - year, down 0.32% month - on - month), and the import value was 28.0053 million US dollars (down 2.47% year - on - year, up 2.23% month - on - month) [6] - As of the week ending October 17, 2025, the cumulative inspection volume of US upland cotton + Pima cotton was 376,700 tons, accounting for 12% of the estimated annual US cotton production, 27% slower than the same period last year. Upland cotton inspection volume was 376,100 tons (13.37% progress, 27% slower), and Pima cotton inspection volume was 600 tons (1% progress, 92% slower) [6] Trading Logic - During the festival, as new cotton entered the acquisition stage, the market focus shifted to the opening price of new cotton. This year, Xinjiang cotton production is high and ginning mills' acquisition enthusiasm is average, with no large - scale rush to buy. Some acquisition prices are around 6 yuan/kg. As new cotton is widely available, there will be selling - hedging pressure on the futures market. The peak season demand in the market is average, and the improvement in downstream demand is limited, so the peak season performance this year is not expected to be outstanding, and the boost to the futures market will be limited [7] Trading Strategy - Single - side: US cotton is expected to fluctuate, and Zhengzhou cotton is also expected to show a volatile trend [9] - Arbitrage: Wait and see [9] - Options: Wait and see [9] Cotton Yarn Industry News - From last week's market sales, fabric mills reported that trading in October was worse than in September.
