Commodities: Slow buying on cotton market
KARACHI: The cotton market was lacklustre on Monday as buyers withdrew to the sidelines. There are no local or international developments behind the slowdown in trading activity, though market reports suggest that sluggish performance of the cotton yarn and fabric markets has forced textile spinners to temporarily move to the sidelines.
There are reports that Indian cotton is trickling into the local market, raising hopes of textile spinners that better quality lint will be available for their needs.
