Robusta coffee edges higher, cocoa hits one-month lows
Grade Bbullish AI signal$ROBUSTA$KC$CC$C2
Robusta coffee futures rose 1.7% to $3,281 per ton, recovering from last week's 2.5-year low as traders monitor Vietnam's ongoing harvest.
Vietnam's crop is expected to deliver output broadly equivalent to last year, while New York cocoa fell 4.6% to $5,203 per ton, hitting a one-month low amid sluggish demand and rising exchange inventories.
Expected Vietnamese supply could limit further robusta gains, while weak cocoa demand and elevated stocks may keep cocoa prices under pressure.
