Today, global coffee prices continue to rise strongly, supported by the sharp decline of the USD.
As of the survey time, the DXY index, which measures the fluctuation of the greenback against six major currencies (EUR, JPY, GBP, CAD, SEK, CHF), has fallen to 102.40.
The USD’s decline followed traders taking profits and investors selectively evaluating economic data to assess the need for interest rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed).
In this context, Brazil’s domestic currency has surged to its highest level in four weeks, limiting sales from Brazil and triggering the liquidation of short positions by previous speculators. This has led to continuous price increases for three consecutive sessions.
According to the Vietnam Industry and Trade Information Center (VITIC) of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the global coffee market is facing a critical moment, with forecasts indicating that coffee purchase prices will remain high.
The key factors contributing to maintaining high prices are believed to be the limited supply of coffee and changing consumption trends, especially in Asia.
Thus, global coffee prices on 08/17/2024, continue to rise sharply compared to yesterday.
