Coffee Prices Retreat as Sentiment Sours Toward Risk Assets

Dec arabica coffee (KCZ23) on Thursday closed down -3.35 (-2.12%), and Nov ICE robusta coffee (RMX23) closed down -44 (-1.75%).

Coffee prices retreated Thursday on a broader selloff in risk assets after the Federal Reserve signaled higher interest rates for longer following Wednesday's FOMC meeting.  Weakness in the Brazilian real was also bearish for coffee prices as the real on Thursday (^USDBRL) dropped to a 1-week low against the dollar.  The weaker real encourages export selling by Brazil's coffee producers.
