This week, the Arabica coffee futures market recorded negative changes on the New York Stock Exchange, while Robusta showed gains on the London market, driven by continued concerns about Asian supply. In the Arabica scenario, the lack of new developments in fundamentals led investors to closely monitor weather conditions in Brazil, as well as certified stocks and demand for the grain, with no significant forecasts of change in the short term.

Internationally, Robusta recorded strong gains after Marex Group Plc predicted a global deficit for Robusta coffee in 2024/25 due to reduced production in Vietnam, reflecting concerns about the balance between supply and demand. In Brazil, the main commercial markets for Arabica coffee remained stable, with small variations in prices in different producing regions.
Analysis of this week's movements points to a scenario of uncertainty and sensitivity in the Arabica and Robusta coffee markets, with volatility persisting and offering challenges and opportunities for market participants. The balance between supply and demand, along with external factors, will continue to influence price movements in the coming days as investors wait for more clarity on fundamentals and closely monitor weather and geopolitical conditions.
