In 2014/15 crop year, Chinese cotton market runs alone without the state cotton reserve policy, but is still under the deterrence of enormous reserved cotton stocks. Domestic cotton prices keep downward due to sluggish demand and lacking confidence. The whereabouts of demand bewilders market players. However, cotton yarn imports get continued upward momentum, what does it influence on domestic cotton demand? Does the alternative effect from chemical fiber wane and is it possible to see demand returning from chemical fiber? End-users keep on vacillating between cotton and chemical fiber as feedstock, what will influence their decision?

Will Xinjiang, an important cotton production base with larger proportion in China, see qualitative change on production measures? For the investment in Xinjiang, will supply shortage of high-grade cotton ease?
