Overall, Zhengzhou cotton is in a state of oscillating and bottom - building [1] 3) Summary by Related Content [Market Review] - ICE December contract settled at 63.59, down 25 points; March at 65.26, down 34 points; May at 66.56, down 33 points, with about 44,000 contracts traded.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2.

There is also an expectation of a bumper harvest in the new domestic cotton year, leading to high selling hedging pressure. For the outer market, due to the U.S. government shutdown, USDA data release is suspended, but according to the latest available data, the export pressure of U.S. cotton is relatively high [9] 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - This month, cotton prices dropped significantly. The September USDA report had a neutral impact on the international market. In the US cotton - growing areas, there was a lack of rainfall. The US cotton had a good rate of high - quality and harvest. As of September 28, the US cotton good - quality rate was 47%, higher than 31% in the same period last year; the harvest rate was 16%, lower than 19% last year but the same as the five - year average. The continuous harvest and listing of US cotton put pressure on cotton prices. Also, the US dollar index rebounded after a decline, and US crude oil and grains performed weakly, causing US cotton to fluctuate downward. [5] - In the domestic supply side, the current commercial cotton inventory is continuously being consumed, and the import of cotton is relatively small. New cotton harvesting has started in some areas, but the listing volume is limited. The downstream demand has improved slightly but remains weak overall. The China Cotton Association shows that this year's domestic cotton output has increased to 7.216 million tons, reaching a new high since 2013. [5] - Due to the drag from the industry and the external environment, US cotton has weakened. The continuous consumption of domestic cotton inventory supports cotton prices. However, the gradual start of new cotton harvesting and the relatively soft downstream demand suppress the short - term decline of Zhengzhou cotton futures. In the medium - to - long - term, Zhengzhou cotton will also perform weakly under the pressure of a bumper harvest. The recommended operation is to short the 01 contract on rallies. [5] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Performance - As of the close on September 30, the ICE US cotton 12 contract closed at 65.72 cents per pound, down 0.81 points from the previous week's close, with a weekly decline of 1.22%.
