Coffee Weekly

​Commodity prices are dropping as the dollar has climbed along with the stock market. Since mid-February the Brazilian real has also reversed course against the dollar again and this too leads to the added selling pressure. Coffee is certainly not alone in seeing the slide in values with sugar also falling sharply. Crude oil fell below $50 a barrel once again and statements from OPEC hinted at production cuts not going to match increases in US productivity and that depressed values. Hints of higher interest rates coupled with a push in the United States and elsewhere to less regulated markets after nearly a decade of the pendulum  being to overregulation has also tipped commodities lower. I believe this deflating environment will persist for a while longer and that should keep coffee on the defensive, absent any new fundamentals that would spark a rapid turn in values.
