NY Sugar Sinks on a Jump in Sugar Deliveries to Settle the NY May Contract

July NY world sugar #11 (SBN23) on Monday closed down -0.81 (-3.07%), and Aug London white sugar #5 (SWQ23) did not trade with markets in the UK closed for the May Day holiday.

NY sugar Monday fell sharply on a surge in deliveries to settle the May NY sugar contract that expired last Friday, which suggested heavy cash sugar selling interest.  ICE futures reported 940,000 MT of sugar was delivered to settle the expiration of the May 2023 NY sugar contract, up sharply from 181,600 MT delivered last year to settle the May 2022 NY sugar contract.  Also, most of the sugar for delivery is designated to be loaded by ports in Brazil, a sign of a better start in Brazil's sugar harvest this year compared to last year.
