Cocoa Climbs to a 12-Year High on Global Supply Concerns

Sep ICE NY cocoa (CCU23) on Tuesday closed +53 (+1.55%), and Sep ICE London cocoa #7 (CAU23) closed +43 (+1.67%).

Cocoa prices Tuesday posted moderate gains, with NY cocoa climbing to a 12-year nearest-futures high.  The outlook for tighter future cocoa supplies has sparked fund buying of cocoa futures on news that 2023/24 Ivory Coast forward cocoa sales from Oct 1-July 7 fell -1.3 MMT (-13.3%) y/y.  Also, the Ivory Coast cocoa regulator, Le Conseil Cafe Cacao, said last Tuesday that the Ivory Coast is not making further forward sales of cocoa for export in the 2023/24 season.
