The cotton quotations in New York continued to rise strongly during the reporting period in particular for the front trading months. In addition the Euro continued to tend weaker vs. the US-dollar. Increased enquiries by the spinning industry indicated the still existing need of covering and the fear of further rising prices. The prevailing unfavourable market conditions prevented new contracts in many cases. Turnovers stagnated on a low level.
