Coffee Prices Mixed on Slack Rain in Brazil and Higher Vietnam Coffee Exports

March arabica coffee (KCH26) today is up +0.60 (+0.17%). March ICE robusta coffee (RMH26) is down -100 (-2.53%).

Coffee prices are mixed today, with robusta falling to a 1-week low.  Below-average rainfall in Brazil is supporting arabica coffee. Somar Meteorologia reported today that Brazil's largest arabica coffee-growing area, Minas Gerais, received 47.9 mm of rain during the week ended January 2, or 67% of the historical average.   Also, strength in the Brazilian real is supportive for arabica coffee. The real (^USDBRL) climbed to a 3-week high against the dollar today, discouraging export sales from Brazil's coffee producers.
