WOOL CONTINUES TO SLIDE
New Zealand Wool Services International Ltd’s Marketing Executive Mr Nathan Arthur reports that market conditions remain unchanged with the strong NZ dollar and Chinese inactivity, combined with higher seasonal wool flow, is undermining wool values.

Mr Arthur advises that compared to the last sale on 1st June;
Fine shears were generally 1 to 2 percent cheaper.
Full length average and poor style coarse fleece remained firm
Coarse longer shears were firm to buyers favour with shorter shears 4 to 8 percent cheaper.

Oddments were generally 2 to 4 percent cheaper.
Next sale on 15th June comprises approximately 8000 bales from the South Island.
