AUSTRALIAN WEEKLY MARKET REPORT
Comment
It was a significantly better market tone this week with the focus again on the better yielding, better quality wools. Prices didn’t move much over the course of the sale but certainly rallied to close at the highest level of the week.

Forecast
A little over 21,000 bales will be offered nationally next week. There is no Fremantle sale. Any concern about supply will be realised with such a small selection. It’s hard to imagine the market reaction being anything but firm or dearer with such a restricted quantity of wool available.
