In the last week, prices of cationic yarn fell considerably. 63D/24F cationic yarn was quoted in a range of 13,700-13,800 Yuan per ton, while 150D/72F was selling at 12,800-12,900 Yuan per ton, both down by 100 Yuan per ton from the previous week.
Shengze markets also reported fall in prices of DTY cationic yarn, while POY prices also registered a significant drop. According to market sources there are several reasons for the drop in prices.
One of the main reasons being fall in prices of raw materials. Prices of cationic chips fell by as much as 100-200 Yuan per ton due to which current spot prices touched 10,850-10,900 Yuan per ton.
Secondly on expectations of a further drop in prices, traders were with-holding their purchases which brought additional pressure on the prices of the yarn. But a market rebound is expected in the current week, just before the onset of October holidays.
