Obviously, China's large cotton traders have found golden opportunities for making money in the recent round of "high fever" of agricultural products. As cotton yarn and cotton prices continue to rise, businesses bought cotton hoarding at lower prices a few months ago, and can get a lot of benefits no matter whether they are processed or sold in a few months.

At the same time, the price of raw materials is constantly being pmitted to downstream industries such as weaving, printing and dyeing, clothing and so on, and the profits of related enterprises are gradually being "swallowed up".

Big business hoarding cotton speculation

A large cotton textile enterprise in Zhejiang recently revealed that sales profits of cotton yarn were 10 times higher than that of last year, so that the high return that did not happen in 10 years benefited from the soaring price of cotton and cotton yarn and the operation of buying low cotton after buying cotton.

Quite a few of these gains have come from

A person who did business consulting for several cotton textile enterprises told reporters that most of the cotton spinning enterprises are mostly hoarding cotton, while cotton yarn is mostly stored in cotton yarn traders and dealers.

At the beginning of this year, the Xinjiang Zhejiang chamber of Commerce estimated that at least 10 billion of Zhejiang's private capital withdrew from Shanxi coal mines and domestic real estate to Xinjiang's cotton market.
