Why Cotton Is Surging as Global Textile Demand Returns
from The Commodities Economy with Fexingo: Oil, Gold, Wheat, and Raw Material Markets · host Fexingo
Cotton futures are up 7.6% in the past week, breaking a months-long slump. Lucas and Luna dig into the surprising driver: not just supply cuts, but a sudden uptick in global textile orders, particularly from India and Bangladesh. They explore how lower cotton prices earlier this year triggered a restocking wave, why US exports are surging, and what this means for consumer apparel prices. With cotton at 76.50 cents per pound and the S&P 500 hitting records on the Iran deal, the hosts connect the commodity move to broader economic signals. A focused, data-rich look at a rally that caught many traders off guard. #Cotton #Commodities #Textiles #India #Bangladesh #SupplyChain #Apparel #Inflation #Trade #USDA #Futures #EconomicData #Restocking #GlobalDemand #SoftCommodities #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Economics Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
