EASTERN AUSTRALIAN MARKET REPORT

Published March 13, 2019 by Tim Marwedel

Market easier in a generally poor quality selection.

Comment
Buyers cautious not to accumulate poor quality wool at high prices. Lower yielding wool of particular concern.
Fleece
Best least affected.

18.5 micron and finer 2% easier.

19.0 micron and broader 1% easier.

Low yielding fleece types very irregular and difficult to quote.
Skirtings
Generally very poor offering. The few best lots were generally unchanged, others up to 1% easier.
Open Top
18.5 micron and finer 1 to 2 % easier. No broader types available.
