Sep arabica coffee (KCU23) on Monday closed up +2.60 (+1.61%), and Sep ICE robusta coffee (RMU23) closed up +70 (+2.68%).
Coffee prices Monday settled moderately higher. Tighter coffee supplies are supporting prices after ICE-monitored robusta coffee inventories last Thursday fell to a record low of 5,096 lots (data history back to 2016). Also, last Thursday, ICE-monitored arabica coffee inventories dropped to an 8-1/2 month low of 527,942 bags. In addition, coffee is seeing support from a lack of sales by coffee farmers in Brazil, who are holding back supplies in anticipation of higher coffee prices.
