Coffee exports increased sharply in the first three weeks of August in Brazil, reinforcing data for expectations that coffee supplies will be secured in the coming time.

World coffee prices fluctuated in the closing trading session this week (August 25).

The US dollar rose to its highest level in more than two months on August 25 and is on track for its sixth consecutive week of gains. While the dollar has recovered, commodities yesterday benefited from capital outflows from US stocks. US stocks fell and crude oil fell, helping coffee recover slightly.

Global coffee prices are still under pressure from Brazil’s bumper new crop, which follows the country’s “biennial” cycle. Consultancy StoneX expects robusta coffee prices to end the year at around $2,300 a tonne, 28% higher than the end of last year, according to a Reuters survey published on August 16.

Meanwhile, the main robusta producing countries were negatively affected by the El Nino weather phenomenon on crop yields. Robusta coffee prices continued to record a recovery with a good increase in yesterday's session. Robusta inventories on the ICE remained at a record low, raising concerns that strong exports from Brazil could ensure market supply. Arabica coffee prices returned to a downward trend due to pressure to boost exports from Brazil.

US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell announced on August 25 that the agency is preparing to raise interest rates and keep them at the next level to reduce inflation.

“We are prepared to raise interest rates further if appropriate and intend to keep them at a limited level until we are confident that inflation is moving steadily toward our target,” Powell said at a central bank conference in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

The greenback has become more attractive as a safe haven as investors await a speech from the Fed chairman for guidance on interest rate policy.

The dollar index (DXY), which measures the U.S. currency against six other major currencies, rose 0.173% to 104.25, its highest level since June 7. The DXY index has risen more than 2% in August and is poised to end a two-month losing streak.

Philadelphia Fed President Patrick Harker and Boston Fed President Susan Collins — speaking in separate interviews — both welcomed the surge in Treasury yields, saying it could help the central bank’s efforts to cool the economy and return inflation to its 2% target. They also left open the possibility that the Fed would not raise interest rates again if necessary.

New jobless claims fell last week as labor market conditions remained tight, new data showed.
