Coffee Closes Lower Ahead of the Holiday

 

Coffee futures closed lower this Thursday ahead of the long weekend. The most active contract for May delivery settled 180 points or 0.94% lower at 188.85 cents a pound. Volume was moderate reaching a total of 48,996 lots including 14,850 switches. The May/July switch loses a little trading at +80 points after finding a good selling against +100. The firm dollar puts pressure on currencies, especially the Brazilian real, which is traded near BRL 5.00>. The Arabica premium (arbitrage) recovered @ $0.3065 after trading at a level of $0.2620, near the lowest level for the premium. Cert Stocks increased 11,330 bags to 595,209 bags. Pending grading decreased 17,102 bags to 73,881 bags. Grading on Thursday a total of 23,565 bags, 12,075 passed and 11,490 failed.

Robusta May24 contract settled at $3479 -80 or 2.25% lower with a 3470/3591 range. Month and quarter end brings a layer of origin pressure through the Robusta terminal which slowed upside pace. Despite the solid overhead pressure values did not collapse into the midsession as month end roaster averaging programs absorbed early weakness, which encourages arbitrage values in May/May to comfortably operate below 29 cents. However, the story changed into the second half of the session as declining upside trend strength prompted systematic liquidation which acted as a domino effect on the terminal forcing values to fall 2%. May/Jul saw decent daily volume with 4.8k lots trade between 81/99. Robusta May24 3200 put traded 1000x, Robusta Jul24 3400 calls vs 3400Δ52 traded 425x @ 200.
