Reduced Global Cocoa Surplus Prospects Lift Prices

July ICE NY cocoa (CCN26) today is up +22 (+0.65%), and May ICE London cocoa #7 (CAK26) is up +20 (+0.80%).

Cocoa prices are moving higher today on the prospects of a smaller global surplus.  StoneX today cut its 2026/27 global cocoa surplus estimate to 149,000 MT from a January forecast of 267,000 MT, citing risks to the West African cocoa crop from an expected El Niño weather event.  StoneX also cut its 2025/26 global cocoa surplus forecast to 247,000 MT from a January estimate of 287,000 MT.
