is overdue. Business done: 1,830,000 shares.
Cotton:--Expectation of rain 'in Oklahoma caused liquidation. We jexpect the market to be more sen-1 sitive to weather conditions. We would adhere to the long-side and we advise purchases, especially on recessions. Important speculative | buying is reported to have : re- entered the market, whilst the Trade has been a good buyer. The mills markets are uneasy.
Rubber: Arrivals are small whilst July and August consump $1-tion is promising. We would accumulate on setbacks. Total sales: 570 tons.
