Coffee prices are moving sharply higher today due to adverse weather conditions in Brazil and concerns about tariffs. Sucden Financial Ltd said today that a severe hailstorm in the Minas Gerais region may have damaged some of Brazil's coffee crops. The markets are also concerned about the threat of a 50% tariff on Brazilian goods if a trade deal is not reached with the US by Friday, which could potentially raise coffee prices sharply and disrupt supplies from Brazil, the world's largest producer of arabica coffee.
