Group 1: Report Basics - Reported industry: Cotton [1] - Date: January 29, 2026 [2] - Researchers: Yu Lanlan, Lin Zhenlei, Wang Haifeng, Hong Chenliang, Liu Youran [3] Group 2: Market Review and Recommendations Market Review - Zhengzhou cotton prices soared. The latest price index for 328-grade cotton was 15,933 yuan/ton, down 20 yuan/ton from the previous trading day. The mainstream basis for 31-grade double 29/ impurity within 3 for machine-picked cotton in southern Xinjiang's Kashgar in the 2025/26 season was mostly at CF05 + 950 or higher, with the 950 - 1000 basis range narrowing. In northern Xinjiang, it was mostly above 1100, with some below, and many quotes close to 1200 or higher, all for self-pickup in Xinjiang [7]. - The trading in the pure cotton yarn market was divided. Some inland spinning enterprises gradually reduced production capacity, and small spinning enterprises began to take holidays. Orders lacked sustainability, and the focus was on inventory preparation. Xinjiang spinning enterprises maintained a certain level of sales and high operation rates. The demand in the all-cotton grey fabric market decreased, and fabric mills were winding down. Spot market inquiries declined. In terms of varieties, the sales of regular C32S, C21S, and lower-grade yarn cards were weaker than before, and current prices remained stable [7]. Market Analysis - Macroeconomically, due to Trump's "yo-yo" remarks on the US dollar and signs that traders were watching for possible coordinated actions by the US and Japan to intervene in the foreign exchange market, the US dollar index hit a four-year low, and the commodity market was generally strong. Overseas, according to the US Department of Agriculture, as of the week ending January 23, 2026, the cumulative inspection volume of US upland cotton + Pima cotton was 2.9374 million tons, accounting for 96.9% of the estimated US cotton production for the year, 7% slower year-on-year (the estimated US cotton production for the 2025/26 season was 2.95 million tons). The overseas market rebounded from a low. In the domestic market, the expected decline in the cotton planting area in Xinjiang for the 2026/27 season had been partially factored in, and the reduction plan was to be gradually implemented over 3 - 5 years. On the demand side, orders for some medium and high-grade varieties were stable, while others were weak. Manufacturers in the yarn and fabric sectors were eager to collect payments, and most merchants expected enterprises to start taking holidays next week. Affected by macro factors, Zhengzhou cotton rebounded sharply with increased positions. Attention should be paid to the performance at the previous high resistance level [8]. Group 3: Industry News - According to the Brazilian National Supply Company (Conab), as of the week ending January 24, the cotton planting rate in Brazil for the 2025/26 season was 60.6%, up from 36.3% the previous week, compared with 46.3% in the same period last year and a five-year average of 40.9% [9]. - According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the yarn production of large-scale enterprises in December 2025 was 2.132 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 1.1%. The cumulative yarn production from January to December was 22.158 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 0.1%. The fabric production of large-scale enterprises in December 2025 was 3.01 billion meters, a year-on-year increase of 3.8%. The cumulative fabric production from January to December was 30.67 billion square meters, a year-on-year increase of 0.2% [9] Group 4: Data Overview - The report provides multiple data charts including the China Cotton Price Index, cotton spot and futures prices, cotton basis changes, CF spreads, cotton commercial and industrial inventories, warehouse receipt totals, and exchange rates of the US dollar against the Chinese yuan and Indian rupee, with data sources from Wind and the Research and Development Department of CCB Futures [18][19][29]

Investment Rating - No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core View - The Zhengzhou cotton futures market has been oscillating and rising. The domestic cotton spot price is supported by a firm basis, while the international cotton price remains weak, leading to a widening gap between domestic and foreign cotton prices. The demand side of the cotton yarn market shows a differentiated trend, with high - count yarn orders better than medium - and low - count yarns. In the short term, Zhengzhou cotton has entered a wide - range oscillating adjustment phase, and the strategy of buying on dips remains unchanged [7][8] 3. Summary by Section 3.1 Market Review and Operation Suggestions - **Market Performance**: Zhengzhou cotton oscillated and rose.

The mainstream basis for machine - picked cotton in southern Xinjiang and northern Xinjiang was relatively high. The price of pure cotton yarn remained stable overall, with high - count yarn prices strong due to low production capacity and high demand, while the transaction focus of air - spun and low - count yarns moved slightly downward.

Recently, cotton merchants have increased their purchases of cotton spot, and the basis for cotton spot sales has gradually risen [8] - **Market Situation and Suggestions**: The domestic cotton spot price is difficult to fall due to the firm basis, while the international cotton price is weak, resulting in a continuous high gap between domestic and foreign cotton prices.

With limited changes in fundamentals, Zhengzhou cotton has entered a wide - range oscillating adjustment phase in the short term, and the low - buying strategy remains unchanged [8] 3.2 Industry News - The US Trade Representative Greer said that Trump plans to visit China in April, and there may be a new round of trade negotiations between China and the US before the visit, focusing on basic goods and services and avoiding sensitive issues such as technology and rare earths.

Domestically, the current industrial expectations have been traded, and attention should be paid to the actual decline in the planting area of Xinjiang cotton in the 2026/27 season.

Report Summary 1. Investment Rating No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints - ICE cotton futures are expected to remain in a low - level oscillation in the short term due to weak export sales data and a lack of upward drivers [5][16]. - Domestic cotton futures and spot prices are stable. Zhengzhou cotton futures are likely to maintain a slightly stronger oscillatory trend in the short term, but the upside space may be limited. Attention should be paid to market sentiment, downstream profits, and import profits of out - of - quota cotton [2][16]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Market Data - **ICE Cotton Main - continuous Contract**: Open price 64.46 cents/pound, high 64.80 cents/pound, low 63.68 cents/pound, close 64.01 cents/pound, down 0.45 cents/pound, down 0.70%, volume 75,909 lots, volume change - 7,304 lots, open interest 177,412 lots, open interest change - 2,875 lots [5]. - **Zhengzhou Cotton Main - continuous Contract**: Open price 14,535 yuan/ton, high 14,640 yuan/ton, low 14,390 yuan/ton, close 14,585 yuan/ton, up 50 yuan/ton, up 0.34%, volume 1,147,629 lots, volume change - 600,223 lots, open interest 860,725 lots, open interest change - 43,135 lots [5]. - **Cotton Yarn Main - continuous Contract**: Open price 20,595 yuan/ton, high 20,650 yuan/ton, low 20,480 yuan/ton, close 20,585 yuan/ton, unchanged, volume 36,697 lots, volume change - 23,407 lots, open interest 19,590 lots, open interest change - 3,612 lots [5]. 3.2 Fundamental Analysis 3.2.1 International Cotton Situation - **ICE Cotton**: Initial rebound was weak, failed to break through 65 cents/pound, and declined in the second half of the week due to a stronger US dollar and poor weekly export sales data [5]. - **US Cotton Weekly Export Sales Data**: As of the week ending December 18, 2025/26 US upland cotton weekly signing was 41,400 tons, a 40% week - on - week decrease and a 2% decrease from the four - week average. Weekly shipments were 33,300 tons, a 9% week - on - week increase and a 23% increase from the four - week average.

There are concerns about reduced yarn production due to supply shortages and increased import costs [6]. - **Brazil**: As of December 27, the planting progress of the 2025/26 cotton season was 25.1%, an 8.2 - percentage - point increase from the previous period, 0.1 percentage point slower year - on - year, and 0.3 percentage point slower than the three - year average [7]. - **Pakistan**: The domestic cotton market has limited trading. The daily arrival of seed cotton has dropped below 1,550 tons, and most ginneries have completed their processing for the year. The expected total production of new cotton is 1.085 - 1.124 million tons [7]. - **Textile Industry Startup Rates in Southeast Asia**: As of the week ending December 26, the startup rates of textile enterprises were 66.9% in India, 61.9% in Vietnam, and 65.5% in Pakistan [8]. 3.2.2 Domestic Cotton Situation - **Cotton Prices and Transactions**: Domestic cotton futures and spot prices were stable in the week ending January 2. Early in the week, there were some transactions of fixed - price old cotton from the 2023/24 season and some low - basis new offers, but subsequent transactions were light. The spot sales basis changed little, with mainly rigid - demand transactions [9][10]. - **Cotton Warehouse Receipts**: As of December 31, there were 5,712 registered warehouse receipts and 3,527 forecast warehouse receipts of No. 1 cotton, totaling 9,239 lots, equivalent to 388,038 tons [10]. - **Textile Enterprises**: The situation of textile enterprises is not optimistic. The cotton yarn market has average trading. Due to weak downstream demand, the increase in raw material costs has squeezed the profits of yarn mills. Some spinning mills have reduced their startup rates, and the fabric market has few inquiries [11]. 3.3 Basic Data Charts The report provides charts on cotton sales progress, commercial inventory, spinning mills' cotton inventory, weaving mills' yarn inventory, spinning mills' cotton yarn inventory, cotton cloth enterprises' cotton cloth inventory, yarn mills' startup rates, cotton cloth enterprises' startup rates, cotton yarn profits, cotton cloth profits, cotton 5 - 9 spreads, cotton import profits, cotton basis, and Zhengzhou cotton warehouse receipts [13][14][15]. 3.4 Operation Suggestions - ICE cotton is expected to remain in a low - level oscillation in the short term [16]. - For Zhengzhou cotton, it is advisable to pay attention to market sentiment, downstream profits, and import profits of out - of - quota cotton. The discussion on the cotton planting area in Xinjiang in 2026 is more suitable to be traded after the Spring Festival in combination with demand [2][16].
