U.S. Cotton Futures prices (March 22) reached US$1.25/lbs on Monday— their highest level since October 2010. According to Cotton Incorporated's monthly economic letter, prices have been impacted by lower supply and lingering logistical constraints in the U.S. and other parts of the world. In its latest report, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) estimates that changes in the global 2021/22 balance sheet were relatively small in January, led by a 608,000-bale reduction in world production. Projected world production is reduced as lower U.S. production and a 500,000-bale decline in India’s crop more than offsets increases for China, Australia, and Pakistan.
Investors can gain exposure to cotton futures through the WisdomTree Cotton ETC (COTN). COTN invests in cotton futures by tracking the Bloomberg Cotton Subindex (the "Index") and providing a collateral yield. The fund has a total expense ratio of 0.49% and trades on the London Stock Exchange (COTN, USD), Deutsche Börse Xetra (OD7E, EUR), and Borsa Italiana (COTN, EUR). COTN has generated returns of +10.71% this January and +52% year-on-year.
