  1. Are you kidding me? Those concerned about rising clothing prices are NOT shopping at those stores, looking for $60 shirts.

  2. That depends on what you mean by "supporter". And on which central bank you are speaking of.

  4. I read an interesting note. commodity price are not the leading factor in acreage decisions, input prices are the major culprit of what to grow.

    Oth, with all the ethanol noise cotton probably took a back seat.

    So the farmers are faced with the same media noise we all deal with and plant corn, high growing costs, end up with a small return. Everyone is talking about corn, follow the herd and voila, cotton hits a high.
