Sugar Prices Undercut by Weakness in the Brazilian Real

March NY world sugar #11 (SBH25) today is down -0.09 (-0.43%), and March London ICE white sugar #5 (SWH25) is down -0.90 (-0.16%).

Sugar prices today extended their 2-week long slide, with NY sugar posting a 2-1/2 month low and London sugar posting a 3-week low.  Weakness in the Brazilian real (^USDBRL) is hammering sugar prices.  The real is down -1.74% today, just above last Friday's record low against the dollar.  The weaker real encourages export selling by Brazil's sugar producers.
