About Cotton
Cotton is the world's most important natural textile fiber, with the US, India, China, and Brazil as the major producers. Prices reflect the balance between textile demand from Asian apparel manufacturers and supply conditions across growing regions in the US South and West.
Why Investors Watch Cotton
Cotton prices are unusually sensitive to US agricultural policy, export competitiveness versus synthetic fibers, and fashion industry demand cycles. Drought in the Texas Panhandle — the world's largest cotton-growing region — can wipe out significant portions of US production, causing sharp upward price moves.
