Speculative selling pressured the benchmark December contract to the day's low of 74.65 cents after the U.S. Department of Agriculture issued a disappointing export and sales report. The USDA put new sales for the week ended July 24 at 86,600 480-lb bales. Exports were 81,900 bales. December held over its downside target of 74.00 cents, however, as many players remain reluctant to take positions ahead of the USDA's monthly supply and demand estimates, released August 12. An estimated 8,000 lots changed hands compared with Wednesday's official 3,962 lots. The December contract closed 0.31 cent lower at 75.05 cents a lb, having ranged from 75.30 to 74.65 cents. The rest of the board ended 0.49 cent to 0.03 cent lower. 011018 MET aug 97
