Reader Says, ‘SURE In A Mess’

Reader Says, 'SURE In A Mess'
 

Sometimes we can peer into the proverbial crystal ball, such as the one depicted on the front cover, and see things clearly. Other times, we may discern a trend forming in the glass, but details are still a bit fuzzy as circumstances continue to mold and shape the vision we are straining to make out.

In November, we called on our readers via the Web Poll, seeking their opinions on what factor will create a positive impact on the demand outlook for U.S. cotton in 2010. Will it be continued economic recovery domestically and globally, rain in China, a weak dollar, stock (securities) prices or, perhaps, all of the above?

Although 52 percent of the respondents say all of these factors need to be aligned to create a positive impact on the demand outlook, a respectable 29 percent believe continued economic recovery will play the largest role in keeping the U.S. cotton boll rolling next year. Rain in China and a weak dollar tied in the poll, with each bringing in seven percent of the vote, followed by stock (securities) prices with five percent.
