Zusammenfassung: | Demand for most yarns is strong. Several things are contributing to business improvements. There has been about a one-third reduction in the number of manufacturing firms. So this is helping those that remain. The biggest help is the value of the dollar moving back to a more normal level. Demand for Murata Jet Spinner and Murata Vortex Spinner yarns is strong. Several of the plants that had closed are reopening - some under new ownership. From Yarn Market data, the 10/1 100% cotton carded ring-spun (RS) yarn was selling in the range of $1.51 to $1.55 per pound five years ago and $1.25 to $1.32 last year. Today's price is $1.17. |
