1. Report Industry Investment Rating There is no information provided regarding the report's industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In the international market, the macro - situation of the US cotton market shows no significant changes. With a high - quality rate at a relatively high level compared to the same period in previous years, the US cotton is expected to show a volatile trend. In the domestic market, as new cotton is being acquired and the acquisition price stabilizes while downstream demand remains unchanged, the Zhengzhou cotton is expected to fluctuate in the short term [8][25]. - As new cotton is increasingly on the market, there will be selling hedging pressure on the futures market. The peak season demand on the demand side is general, with limited improvement, so its boosting effect on the futures market is also limited [25][42]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 International Market Analysis - **US Cotton Market**: With no obvious changes in the macro - situation and a high - quality rate at a relatively high level compared to the same period in previous years, the US cotton is expected to fluctuate [8]. - **US Cotton Growth**: As of October 10, 2025, the cumulative inspection volume of US upland cotton + Pima cotton was 269,100 tons, accounting for 8.6% of the estimated annual US cotton output, 27% slower year - on - year. The inspection progress of US upland cotton was 9.57%, 27% slower year - on - year, and the inspection of Pima cotton had not started. The weekly deliverable ratio was 69.2%, and the quarterly deliverable ratio was 80.6%, 7 percentage points higher year - on - year and 4 percentage points lower quarter - on - quarter [8]. - **US Cotton Sales**: As of the week of September 18, 2025, the weekly contract signing volume of 2025/26 US upland cotton was 19,500 tons, a 54% week - on - week decrease; the weekly shipment volume was 31,100 tons, a 14% week - on - week increase [8]. - **CFTC Position**: As of September 23, 2025, the net long position ratio of ICE cotton futures funds was - 23.65% (a 0.34 - percentage - point week - on - week decrease) [8]. - **Brazil**: The 2024/25 annual cotton output in Brazil is expected to be 4.077 million tons, a 16,000 - ton increase from the previous month. The 2025/26 annual output is expected to be 4.031 million tons, a 46,000 - ton decrease year - on - year [8]. - **Pakistan**: As of September 30, 2025, the cumulative new cotton listing volume in Pakistan in the 2025/26 season reached 472,000 tons, a 49% year - on - year increase [8]. - **Global**: According to the latest September global cotton production and sales forecast by the USDA, the global cotton output in September was 25.62 million tons, a 230,000 - ton month - on - month increase; the total consumption was 25.68 million tons, an 184,000 - ton increase; the ending inventory decreased by 168,000 tons to 15.92 million tons [8]. 3.2 Domestic Market Logic Analysis - **Supply Side**: The domestic new cotton harvesting is in a high - incidence period. The harvesting progress in northern Xinjiang is nearly 80%, and about 30% in southern Xinjiang. The market speculates on the production reduction in southern Xinjiang, driving up the seed cotton price. As of October 16, 2025, the operating rate of national ginneries increased to 76.9%, a 62.5% increase from the previous week. As of October 15, 2025, the cumulative notarized inspection volume was 491,499 tons, a 113.21% year - on - year increase. As of October 10, 2025, the total commercial cotton inventory was 1.1554 million tons, a 174,600 - ton (17.80%) increase from the previous week [25]. - **Demand Side**: As of October 16, 2025, the operating load of spinning mills in the mainstream areas was 65.6%, a 0.20% increase from the previous week. The yarn inventory of spinning mills decreased by 1% month - on - month [25]. 3.3 Option Strategy - Volatility Trend: The HV on the previous day was 8.4519, with a slight decrease in volatility. - Option Strategy Recommendation: The PCR of the main contract of Zhengzhou cotton was 0.7661, and the PCR of trading volume was 0.8549. Both call and put trading volumes increased. It is recommended to wait and see [39]. 3.4 Futures Trading Strategy - **Trading Logic**: During the holiday, as new cotton is being acquired, the market focus shifts to the opening price of new cotton. With a high cotton output in Xinjiang and general acquisition enthusiasm of ginneries, there is no large - scale rush for acquisition. As new cotton is increasingly on the market, there will be selling hedging pressure on the futures market. The peak season demand is general, with limited improvement, so its boosting effect on the futures market is also limited [42]. - **Single - Side Trading**: It is expected that the US cotton will mostly fluctuate in the future, and the Zhengzhou cotton is also expected to fluctuate. It is recommended to trade at an appropriate time [42]. - **Arbitrage**: It is recommended to wait and see [42]. 3.5 Weekly Data Tracking - **Mid - end Situation**: Information on the operating load of pure - cotton yarn mills, the load of all - cotton grey fabric mills, yarn inventory days, and grey fabric inventory days is presented through historical data charts [49]. - **Cotton Inventory**: Data on national commercial cotton inventory, spinning mill industrial cotton inventory, and reserve inventory from 2015 to 2024 are provided [51]. - **Futures - Spot Basis**: Information on the basis of cotton in January, May, and September, the average basis of US upland cotton in seven major markets, and the basis between the spot price of C32S cotton yarn and the active contract of Zhengzhou cotton yarn is presented through historical data charts [54].

棉花周报:郑棉上方承压,新棉逐步上市-20251012
Guo Xin Qi Huo· 2025-10-12 03:02
Group 1: Report Information - Report Title: "Zhengzhou Cotton Under Pressure, New Cotton Gradually Coming to Market - Guoxin Futures Cotton Weekly Report" [2] - Report Date: October 12, 2025 [2] Group 2: Industry Investment Rating - No information provided. Group 3: Core Views - Domestically, after the National Day holiday, Zhengzhou cotton rebounded with fluctuations, reaching a maximum of 13,420 yuan/ton, and the purchase price of Xinjiang seed cotton increased slightly. As the purchase of seed cotton fully unfolds, the supply pressure gradually increases, and hedging currently has a small profit, significantly suppressing Zhengzhou cotton. Technically, Zhengzhou cotton tried to rebound but was pressured around 13,500 yuan/ton. In the short term, there is support around 13,000 yuan/ton and significant pressure around 13,500 yuan/ton [53]. - Internationally, due to the U.S. government shutdown and data suspension, the market sentiment is cautious, and market fluctuations may be limited before data resumes. Fundamentally, countries such as India, Pakistan, Vietnam, and Bangladesh face significant resistance in exporting cotton products and clothing to the U.S. due to substantial tariff increases. As a countermeasure, they will increase purchases of Brazilian cotton, and U.S. cotton exports face certain challenges. It is expected that U.S. cotton will be under pressure and remain weak [53]. Group 4: Cotton Market Analysis Futures Prices - Zhengzhou cotton rebounded slightly this week, with a weekly increase of 0.83%. ICE cotton futures continued to be weak, with a weekly decline of 1.45% [9]. Spot Prices - This week, the cotton price index increased. The 3128 index rose by 17 yuan/ton compared to last week, and the 2129 index rose by 4 yuan/ton [13]. Import Situation - In August, 70,000 tons of cotton were imported, a year-on-year decrease of 80,000 tons [18]. Inventory Situation - As of the first half of September, the commercial cotton inventory was 1.1759 million tons, a decrease of 305,800 tons compared to the second half of August [19]. Downstream Inventory - In August, the yarn inventory was 26.58 days, a year-on-year increase of 1.35 days, and the grey fabric inventory was 33.87 days, a year-on-year increase of 4.11 days [26]. Yarn Prices - This week, yarn prices decreased. The price of 10 - count air - spun cotton yarn decreased by 80 yuan/ton compared to last week, the price of 32 - count carded cotton yarn decreased by 155 yuan/ton, and the price of 40 - count combed cotton yarn decreased by 150 yuan/ton [31]. Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange Warehouse Receipts and Valid Forecasts - This week, the total number of Zhengzhou cotton warehouse receipts and forecasts decreased by 554. The number of warehouse receipts was 3,030, and the valid forecasts were 11, totaling 3,041 [37]. Seed Cotton Purchase - The purchase price of Xinjiang machine - picked cotton increased slightly compared to the previous week [42]. U.S. Cotton Exports - As of September 11, the current - year net export sales of U.S. upland cotton increased by 186,100 bales, and the next - year net export sales were 19,000 bales [44][47]. U.S. Weather - The total area in drought (D1 - D4) in the U.S. was 34.2%, with different drought levels having varying proportions [50]. Group 5: Market Outlook - Domestically, Zhengzhou cotton has support around 13,000 yuan/ton and significant pressure around 13,500 yuan/ton in the short term [53]. - Internationally, the market may have limited fluctuations before data resumes, and U.S. cotton exports face challenges and are expected to remain weak [53].
25Q4展望:四季度棉市压力大,长期不悲观
Dong Zheng Qi Huo· 2025-09-30 09:05
Report Industry Investment Rating The report does not mention the industry investment rating. Core Views - In Q4 2025, the cotton market faces significant pressure, but the long - term outlook is not pessimistic. The international market will remain weak in the short - term, while the domestic market, Zhengzhou cotton, will face seasonal supply pressure. However, in the long - run, the prospects for both markets are more positive [1][105]. - For the international market, short - term supply pressure is high due to harvests and slow US cotton export sign - ups. But long - term, cost support and potential changes in trade policies are favorable. For the domestic market, the large expected Xinjiang cotton production in Q4 2025 will test downstream demand, and there is a risk of the price breaking below 13,000 yuan/ton, but there are also factors supporting a rebound [105][106]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 1. Q3 2025 Cotton Market Review - **Domestic Market**: Cotton prices first rose and then fell, shifting from trading the "tight reality" to the "loose expectation". In July, prices rose due to low commercial inventories and market sentiment. From late July to August, prices fluctuated due to hedging pressure. In September, prices declined as the expectation of increased Xinjiang cotton production grew [4]. - **International Market**: It remained weak in the low - level range of 65 - 70 cents/pound. Normal weather during the US cotton growing season and slow export sign - ups due to trade policies led to limited upward movement [5]. 2. Domestic Fundamental Analysis - **Inventory Situation**: As of the end of August, national commercial cotton inventories were 1.4817 million tons, a significant decrease. Xinjiang and inland commercial inventories were at multi - year lows. However, cotton textile enterprises had relatively high industrial inventories, which could meet needs until mid - October when new cotton is expected to be available in large quantities. There were reports of inventory shortages in some inland textile enterprises and a prominent shortage of high - quality cotton [12]. - **New Cotton Yield Estimation**: Domestic institutions expect significant increases in Xinjiang and national cotton production in the 2025/2026 season. The report estimates that Xinjiang's cotton production is likely to reach around 7.5 million tons. If so, the supply of about 8.4 million tons (including import quotas) can basically cover demand. The high - yield expectation has already led to a significant decline in the futures price, and attention should be paid to the actual yield [17][18][19]. - **New Cotton Purchase Expectations**: Ginning mills are cautious about new cotton purchases, with most expecting an opening price below 6.3 yuan/kg. Cotton farmers' psychological price is around 6.3 - 6.5 yuan/kg, and their reluctance to sell has weakened. The pre - sale price of cottonseed is expected to decline to 2.1 - 2.2 yuan/kg during the peak purchase period, still higher than last year. The large pre - sale volume of Xinjiang cotton and high pre - sale basis still exist. There is a possibility of a negative feedback loop between the futures price and the seed cotton purchase price, with the purchase price potentially dropping below 6 yuan/kg, corresponding to the futures price possibly breaking below 13,000 yuan/ton [25][26]. - **Import Situation**: In the 2024/2025 season, cotton imports were 1.05 million tons, a 68% year - on - year decrease.棉纱 imports were 1.41 million tons, a 15.6% year - on - year decrease. In the 2025/2026 season, the import volume of cotton and棉纱 is uncertain, depending on trade negotiations. If the current tariff level between China and the US remains, it will continue to suppress imports [29]. - **Downstream Market**: The downstream textile industry had a lackluster peak season, with low profits for spinning enterprises. Although the profit margin improved in September, it remained low overall. Orders improved seasonally in August but were still weaker than in previous years. The inventory structure of downstream棉纱 was healthy, with continued inventory reduction in September. The load of downstream textile enterprises increased seasonally but was still lower than in previous years [33][40]. - **Terminal Textile and Apparel Market**: In August, textile and apparel exports declined year - on - year and month - on - month. From January to August, cumulative exports decreased slightly. However, China's textile and apparel exports showed resilience, with exports to the Belt and Road countries and the European Union playing important roles. Exports to the US declined significantly. Domestic demand for textile and apparel showed mild growth in the first eight months of 2025, but the growth rate was still relatively low, and the recovery of domestic demand was slow [50][52][66]. - **Supply - Demand Balance**: The 2024/2025 season had a supply - demand gap of about 600,000 - 700,000 tons. The 2025/2026 season may be a balanced or inventory - accumulating year. The large expected production will test downstream demand in Q4 2025, but the pressure may ease later [69]. - **Future Xinjiang Cotton Production**: There is uncertainty about whether Xinjiang's cotton planting area and production will continue to increase next year. Policy adjustments may occur, and the report believes that production may slightly decline next year due to factors such as possible reduced farmer income and government regulation [73]. 3. International Market Analysis - **US Cotton Situation**: The USDA September report maintained the previous forecast for US cotton supply and demand in the 2025/2026 season, with a tight - balance situation. As of September 21, the US cotton boll opening and harvesting progress was slightly behind last year but in line with the five - year average. Hurricane threats were low, and the weather was favorable for later growth and harvest. US cotton new - crop export sign - ups were slow, and the export demand may remain weak due to trade policy uncertainties [80][84][91]. - **Global Supply - Demand**: The 2025/2026 global cotton supply - demand pattern is relatively balanced. The USDA September report adjusted the supply and demand estimates, narrowing the supply - demand gap. The global market is facing seasonal supply pressure, and future focus will be on trade policies and demand prospects [95]. 4. Market Outlook - **International Market**: In Q4 2025, the international market will remain weak, with the price likely to test the 65 - cent support level. However, in the long - term, the outlook is not pessimistic, as there is cost support and potential positive changes in trade policies [105]. - **Domestic Market**: In Q4 2025, Zhengzhou cotton faces seasonal supply pressure, with a risk of breaking below 13,000 yuan/ton. But after the release of negative factors, downstream restocking may support the price. The long - term outlook is cautiously optimistic [106]. 5. Strategy - Short - and medium - term, it is advisable to sell on rebounds. In the long - term, wait for opportunities to buy at low levels below 13,000 yuan/ton, while closely monitoring macro - level and industrial drivers [108].

Report Title - Cotton Weekly Report: Cotton Prices Fluctuate Weakly as New Cotton Approaches the Market [1] Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report Core Viewpoints - As new cotton gradually enters the acquisition phase, the market focus is shifting to the opening price of new cotton. With the arrival of the peak season in September, the improvement in downstream demand is relatively limited. It is expected that the cotton market will show a short - term weak and volatile trend. The increase in Xinjiang cotton production and the general acquisition enthusiasm of ginneries may lead to selling hedging pressure on the market. [26][42] Summary by Directory Part I: Domestic and International Market Analysis International Market Analysis - **US Cotton Market**: With no significant changes in the macro - environment and a high good - quality rate in the current fundamentals, the US cotton market is expected to move in a range - bound manner. As of September 14, the boll opening rate of cotton in 15 major cotton - growing states in the US was 50%, 3 percentage points slower than last year and 1 percentage point faster than the five - year average. The harvest rate was 9%, 1 percentage point slower than last year and 1 percentage point faster than the five - year average. The good - quality rate was 52%, 13 percentage points higher than last year and 10 percentage points higher than the five - year average.

Report Information - Report Title: Nanhua Futures Cotton and Cotton Yarn Weekly Report - Attention to USDA Report Adjustment [1] - Date: September 12, 2025 [1] - Analyst: Chen Jianing (Investment Consulting License No.: Z0020097) [2] Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints - Currently, the inventory of old cotton is low, new cotton is mostly pre - sold, and the downstream maintains a de - stocking state, which supports cotton prices. However, the spinning profit of yarn mills is poor, and the hedging pressure is large under the expectation of a bumper harvest, which may limit the upside of cotton prices. In the short term, cotton prices may fluctuate within the previous range. Attention should be paid to the listing situation of new cotton and the adjustment of the USDA's September supply - demand forecast report [5].
