Market Commentary
All four major down raw material categories fell this period. Grey duck down 90% was quoted at 528.02 yuan/kg, down 2.76 yuan; grey goose down 90% at 902.59 yuan/kg, down 3.02 yuan; white duck down 90% at 557.93 yuan/kg, down 1.51 yuan; white goose down 90% at 968.76 yuan/kg, down 4.00 yuan. Goose down declines were generally larger than duck down, with white goose down falling the most and white duck down the least. Continued weakness at the upstream raw material end may push down cost expectations for downstream down jackets and the sorting stage of second-hand clothing recycling, but the current decline is limited, and transmission to export quotations still needs to be observed.
