NYBOT Coffee Price Drops 3%, Hits One-Month Low
ICE NYBOT Coffee Future News
According to Reuters, ICE NYBOT Arabica coffee futures prices reached a one-month low on 5th January 2024, ending the week with a net loss of 3%. This decline was influenced by commodities index rebalancing and the anticipation of rains in Brazil, which is a major coffee-producing region.
March arabica coffee (KCc1) settled down 2.75 cents, or 1.5%, at $1.828 per lb, hitting a one-month low at $1.820. The observed selling of arabica coffee futures by funds is likely tied to the rebalancing of commodity indexes in January.
The weather in Brazil continues to be mostly positive for crop development, contributing to a steady export flow. In December, Brazil’s green coffee exports surged by 33% compared to the previous year, reaching 4.06 million bags.
On the other hand, March robusta coffee bean (LRCc2) experienced a 0.3% rise, reaching $2,795 per metric ton. Despite gains in the previous session, the robusta beans contract faced a 2% decline for the week.
Dealers suggest that prices might need to increase further to incentivize regular selling by farmers in Vietnam, another key producer. Exporters are grappling with delivery delays from farmers.
Arabica Coffee Futures Prices
According to Investing.com, ICE Coffee Futures are priced at USD $182.15 per lb, as of 8th January 2024.
ICE NYBOT Coffee Futures Price Forecast 2024
According to Investing Haven, the global coffee production forecast for 2023/2024 is set to rise. World coffee production is expected to increase by 4.3 million bags (60 kilograms) compared to the previous year, reaching 174.3 million. The higher output in Brazil and Vietnam is anticipated to more than offset the reduced production in Indonesia.
With additional supplies, global exports are projected to increase by 5.8 million bags to a record 122.2 million, primarily driven by strong shipments from Brazil. Despite a forecasted record global consumption of 170.2 million bags, ending inventories are expected to remain tight at 31.8 million bags.
Investing Haven predicted that coffee prices will rise due to the stronger Real. This is due to coffee being predominantly traded in dollars on international markets.
The strengthened Real reduces the value of coffee, providing traders in Brazil with an incentive to limit sales in international markets in anticipation of higher prices. Consequently, the availability of coffee in external markets decreases, exerting an upward pressure on prices.
