Coffee Prices Climb on Brazil Real Strength and Tight Robusta Supplies

Sep arabica coffee (KCU23) this morning is up +3.40 (+2.16%), and Sep ICE robusta coffee (RMU23) is up +6 (+0.24%).

Coffee prices this morning are moderately higher.   Strength in the Brazilian real (^USDBRL) supports coffee prices as the real rose to a 1-1/2 week high today against the dollar.  The stronger real discourages export selling from Brazil's coffee producers.  Robusta coffee has support on tight supplies as ICE-monitored robusta coffee inventories Wednesday fell to a record low of 5,435 lots (data history back to 2016).  Gains in robusta are limited on negative carryover from Thursday when Cecafe reported Brazil's Jun robusta exports rose +60% y/y to 230,653 bags.
