Every week, Quality Wool Managing Director Mark Dyson brings you his summary of the week in wool.
The Australian wool market has this week recorded an overall unchanged result, with the AWEX Eastern Market Indicator once again closing at 1,139c/kg.
The largest gains for the week were seen in the finer Merino fleece types, with strong widespread competition in this sector helping to push prices higher.
This was highlighted in the individual Micron Price Guides (MPGs) for 17.5 micron and finer, which rose by
After these MPG rises, the results as mentioned were varied with plus and minus results recorded across similar types Australia‑wide.
The EMI continues to trade well below this time last year, sitting 161 cents, or 12.4% lower, than Week 17 last season.
Over the past year, the finer microns have suffered greater falls than their broader counterparts, narrowing the price differentials between microns.
This is best highlighted looking at the finest (16.5) and broadest (22.0) MPGs in Melbourne.
In the corresponding sale of the previous season, these two MPGs were 2,323 and 1,282 cents respectively, a difference of 1,041 cents.
In this series, these MPGs are now 1,809 and 1,260 cents respectively, a difference of just 549 cents.
Next week sees 47,202 bales currently expected to be offered in Melbourne, Fremantle and Sydney.
