May arabica coffee (KCK25) Thursday closed down -3.60 (-0.93%), and May ICE robusta coffee (RMK25) closed up +5 (+0.09%).
Coffee prices on Thursday settled mixed. President Trump's reciprocal tariffs led to risk-off sentiment in most asset markets and raised concern about consumer demand, weighing on coffee prices. However, robusta coffee shook off early losses Wednesday and turned higher on concern President Trump's 46% tariff on Vietnam's exports could disrupt robusta coffee flows and exacerbate supply shortfalls. Vietnam is the world's largest producer of robusta coffee.
