Cotton arrivals surged at the Karachi Cotton Exchange on Friday, while spot rates dropped Rs150/maund.
The spot rates dropped to Rs5,950/maund (37.324kg) and Rs6,377/40kg. Ex-Karachi rates also decreased to Rs6,095/maund and Rs6,532/40kg after an addition of Rs145 and Rs155 as upcountry expenses, respectively. An analyst said prices are likely to remain under pressure for some time because of an increase in arrivals.
