Naseem Usman, chairman of the Karachi Cotton Brokers Association, said that trade activity remained low because of rain in the country. Prices in the international market remained under pressure, while rates increased in India because of exports to China. “Rates in the New York cotton market decreased, as China moved to India,” he added.
