ICE cotton slips on weaker exports, US-China trade deal uncertainty
ICE cotton futures fell on Thursday amid weak US exports, a stronger dollar, and lingering US-China trade uncertainties. Despite expectations of lower cotton acreage, prices remain under pressure due to sluggish global demand. The July and December 2025 contracts have posted 15 losses in the last 20 sessions. Crude oil decline, poor shipment fulfilment and tariff concerns further weigh on sentiment.
