Merino pieces sold to a top of 894c greasy or 1563c dry whilst Merino bellies sold to a top of 650c greasy or 1292c dry.
Some continued relief for the wool market last week as for the second consecutive week the market has experienced gains, promoting an added level of confidence that was not present a few weeks ago.
The market rose 13c on Tuesday and a further 34c on Wednesday to rise to 937c or in US dollar terms 686c.
The pass in rate was considerably low despite the larger offering this week sitting at 5.9%, suggesting that many buyers are looking to take advantage of the low market and fill forward orders in a hope to hedge their position.
With the current outlook still not looking promising it will be interesting to see how the market responds after a strong week, can it maintain a positive trajectory, or will we see another correction.
The online offer board has seen consistent usage this week with a total of 934 bales sold. A late surge in the week saw 103 bales sold on Wednesday and Thursday. 15µ and 16µ micron wool sold up to 1145c and 1150c greasy or 1797c and 1616c dry.
