USA: Arabica coffee jumps more than 5% on ICE, raw sugar retreats

Tridge summary

ICE arabica futures saw a surge of over 5% on Monday, rebounding from a three-week low, driven by a technical recovery that was further aided by a decline in sugar prices. The increase in arabica futures was attributed to the market reaching low points and the anticipation of a recovery. Despite concerns about the future of Brazil and Colombia's coffee crops, the rising stocks in exchanges might limit the potential gains. Meanwhile, Brazil's green coffee exports experienced a 19% increase in November. In contrast, the sugar market saw a slight decline due to higher-than-expected Brazilian sugar production in the latter half of November, alongside the expectation of improved global trade flows, which could lead to a decrease in sugar prices.
