☕📈 Coffee markets had a wild week. Arabica futures surged nearly 11%, while Robusta gained 3.7%, with some of the biggest daily swings ever recorded on the New York exchange.
🌦️ Weather remains the key driver: Brazil’s harvest is progressing, but slower than last year due to labour shortages and rising costs. At the same time, a strong Super El Niño is expected to last into 2027, raising concerns about coffee production in major growing regions.
💹 Beyond the climate, speculation, algorithmic trading and higher margin requirements fueled extreme volatility. ICE arabica stocks also continued to decline, keeping the market on edge.
🍫 Cocoa wasn’t spared either, with prices hitting an eight-month high before falling sharply at the end of the week.
