Market outlook

The world coffee market closed the last trading session of the week in red, extending the decline on both the London and New York exchanges as selling pressure increased in most trading terms.

This is also the second consecutive week that world coffee prices have ended in red, showing a rapid change in the supply-demand balance and macroeconomic factors. The reopening of the Strait of Hormuz has reduced oil prices by about 10%, thereby reducing global shipping costs.

When logistics pressure subsided, one of the important supports for agricultural product prices, including coffee, also weakened. At the same time, the market shifted to a state of less concern about supply shortages, causing speculative buying power to decrease significantly.

However, the market is not entirely negative. In Vietnam – the world’s largest Robusta supplier, the price decrease has stimulated buying demand. As of April 17, Robusta inventories managed by ICE continued to plummet, down to 3,838 lots. This is also the lowest level in 16 months – a factor limiting the market’s deep decline.
