Cotton Prices Fall, Clothing Prices Rise, Why Cotton Prices Are "Two Days"

As the temperature drops, it comes to the annual season of "adding clothes and adding clothes".

However, many consumers have found that the economy is slowing down.

In the context of falling raw material prices, the cost of "replacement" has not risen.

This year, although the growth rate of CPI continued to decline year-on-year,

The products related to people's livelihood, such as meat and eggs, continue to rise in price.

As the "food, clothing, shelter and pportation" level is high, the market expects "visible hand" to extend at the right time.

"Clothes can't afford to buy!"

When it comes to the 2012 Shanghai Shopping Festival, coupled with the early promotion of the Mid Autumn Festival and the National Day "double festival", the busy shopping promotion promotes many consumers' desire to shop.

Miss Luo, who has just started to buy professional clothes, said: "in Xujiahui business circle, we are looking at 4 digit numbers.

The price is too fast to buy. A shirt costs 500 yuan to 600 yuan, and the jacket costs 1000 yuan.

"Two years ago, brand stores

It's a bit expensive when it's 500 yuan to 700 yuan, but now it's in the mall.

The price range from 1200 yuan to 1500 yuan has become a more common phenomenon.

Miss Yang, who often stroll around the market, told reporters that no matter how the price of raw materials changed, the business became a "routine" by changing the season.

The clothing of the season is not cheap. Miss Chen from Jiangsu to Shanghai said: "in the new department store, 3 short sleeved T-shirts can be bought together for 30 percent off, but after careful calculation, the average cost is 150 yuan per piece. The key is that the design and style of these clothes are very ordinary, and the summer clothes that are relatively bright can run faster than 500 yuan."

If the price of clothing in a glass cabinet is high, it is because of the increase in prices of stores and agents.

Why is it becoming more and more expensive to "clean" things from the Internet? "Taobao control" Cai told reporters that she spent about 2000 yuan on Taobao every month, of which about 1000 yuan was purchased for clothes, but now the quality of the clothes that she wants to find is reliable and fashionable is obviously increased, and it is more expensive than before. The previous 1000 yuan budget can buy 5 pieces of clothing, and now we can buy 3 pieces at most.

Why is the price of clothing cotton double?

Be relative to

One of the raw materials of the cotton market is another trend.

The cotton price index of the Zhengzhou Mercantile Exchange has fallen 5.2% over the past two years due to the depressed market demand.

According to data from Zhuo Chuang, cotton prices fell by nearly 6% in the first 20 days of September compared with the same period last year.

In fact, the huge price difference between raw materials and finished products has not been plated into

The profits of the garment industry.

According to statistics of Finance and exchange, 84 listed companies in the first half of the textile and garment sector achieved a net profit of 6 billion 413 million yuan, a decrease of nearly 20% compared with the same period last year, of which the loss of the largest companies in the first half was almost 3 times that of the same period last year.

In the industry view, with the implementation of the policy of easing, the cost of human resources, channels, brands and other links has become the "culprit" of phagocytic industry profits.

For example, the brand building links that domestic enterprises despise will require a lot of input.

"Brand investment is far higher than the price of raw materials, especially in the high-end clothing price system, the proportion of raw material prices has been very small."

CIC consultant light industry researcher Zhu Qinghua said.

"Visible hand" must be extended in time.

In addition to clothing, in fact, the main commodities that have been priced up this year are mostly those that include meat and eggs, rents and other related people's livelihood options.

Analysts pointed out that although the year-on-year growth rate of CPI continued to decline this year, the cost of goods and money pmission and other factors related to people's livelihood continued to rise. Imported products, including crude oil and other raw materials, significantly reduced import inflation. However, in the context of the recent easing of policies launched by major powers, the latter two factors of import and cost push inflation are likely to "meet again".

To this end, experts pointed out that in the face of the market "invisible hand" continued to push up, the government must also timely extend "visible hand": on the one hand, we should strengthen market supervision, increase effective supply, prevent intermediate links from "sitting on the ground"; on the other hand, we should vigorously promote the reform of income distribution.
