Re: [RT] Cotton/ Copper

Don,

  My cotton friends tell me that Brazil is producing Cotton for a cost of
about 35 cents. US farmers need 50 cents.  That means the true cost to the
market is probably somewhere in between the two. I don't think anyone will
be growing cotton under 30 cents unless they have a govt. subsidy. Of course
if demands picks up, and retail numbers just improved today, its a whole new
ball game.

Cheers,

Norman
