Discussion
This graph shows six years of monthly world stocks-to-use estimates
(in percent) matched against the A-index of world cotton prices
(in cents per lb). As always, stocks-to-use moves in the opposite
direction from world prices. The key threshold is 40% world stocks-to-use
(dark horizontal line) which is the point where major trends in
world prices (either up or down trends) tend to change direction.
