ICE cotton futures climb Wednesday as Oct 26 gains 120 points
ICE cotton futures rallied Wednesday, supported by tightening deliverable supply as ICE certified stocks fell 20,673 bales to 100,612 (multi-year low). Uneven Texas and Southeast rainfall forecasts add near-term supply-risk premium. A firmer USD index is a mild headwind for export demand, but the session's price action suggests inventory and weather-driven fundamentals dominated.
