The Cotton Farming industry has experienced extremely volatile operating conditions over the past five years. COVID-19 caused states and localities to enact quarantines, reducing consumer spending and demand for products made by textile mills and clothing manufacturers. Since these industries are critical cotton buyers, the pandemic caused industry revenue to decline. Plunging cotton prices worsened the industry's performance, as they reduced the value of sales. Surging commodity prices immediately following the pandemic contributed to a partial resurgence, but they also made substitutes more attractive. Trade wars and an appreciating dollar caused exports to fall. Since exports constitute a significant source... Learn More

Shipbuilders are protected from foreign competition through protectionist policies like the Jones Act, which prohibits using foreign-built vessels on routes between US ports. While some military shipbuilders receive contracts from foreign countries, commercial shipbuilding is mainly domestic. An increase in US oil and gas production throughout the period has provided a...
