Additionally, the April and May jobs count was revised to a lower level. This, combined with the higher unemployment rate, has given investors confidence that the Fed will cut interest rates by its September meeting.The U.S. Export Sales Report showed another week of disappointing shipments.

    For the current crop year, U.S. exporters sold a net total of 115,400 Upland bales and 56,900 bales for the new crop year. The current crop sales were above average for this time of the year, but new crop sales were below average.

The slow pace of shipments has dropped the portion of bales exported of the final crop number to the lowest levels in over 15 years. A net total of 2,300 Pima bales were sold, and 7,800 bales were shipped.
