December arabica coffee (KCZ25) on Friday closed up +0.05 (+0.01%), and January ICE robusta coffee (RMF26) closed down -101 (-2.18%).
Coffee prices on Friday settled mixed. Arabica coffee recovered from early losses on Friday and posted modest gains after ICE arabica coffee inventories sank to a 19.5-month low. Heavy rains in Vietnam's coffee-growing regions bolstered the outlook for the country's coffee crops and hammered robusta prices on Friday. Coffee prices were also under pressure Friday from a stronger dollar after the dollar index (DXY00) rallied to a 2.75-month high.
