A limited increase in top sales was led by Merinos although the market for crossbreds remained "in the doldrums", one broker said. Prices for both types were generally unchanged in very competitive trading conditions, brokers said. Renewed buying from China offered the only realistic hope for an improvement in the crossbred sector, they added. Some said this would occur by the end of October. As the summer holiday period finally drew to a close, textile manufacturers reported an upturn in exports to Italy which brokers said could be expected to lead to replacement orders over the next few months. However, Monday saw very few forward contracts as manufacturers remain reluctant to build up stocks, they added. 111039 MET sep 96
