In China, offers for ring?spun 30s weaving yarn in Xiaoshan fell US cents 4 a kg in the third week of December while compact siro?spun 40s yarns in Jiangsu declined US cents 5 a kg on the week.

In India, viscose spun yarn prices were largely unchanged during the week.

In Pakistan, viscose spun yarn prices were stable this week with relatively lower level of demand at the end of the season. 35s viscose yarn prices were flat on the week and 40s were firm in Karachi market.
