Tridge summary

The Arabica coffee futures market saw a price devaluation of over 2% during a trading session at the New York Stock Exchange (ICE Future US) on March 29, 2023. This was largely due to favorable weather conditions in Brazil, which are expected to boost coffee production. The devaluation was most pronounced in December/23 futures, which fell by 415 points to 166.10 cents/lbp. Meanwhile, the conilon coffee market in London experienced a minor 0.59% price drop. Analyst Haroldo Bonfá of Pharos Consultoria discusses the market's expectations of increased production from Brazil, which is putting downward pressure on prices. Additionally, concerns about European inflation, currently above 10%, are impacting consumption predictions. Despite these challenges, the coffee market has so far shown resilient demand. However, the drop in prices has not significantly sped up marketing activities, indicating that producers remain reluctant to sell at these lower prices.
