  • Crude Oil Price Surge Lifts Sugar Markets Amid Production Shifts and Currency Moves
    April 23, 2026, 4:45 PM EDT. Sugar prices rose on Thursday, with London ICE white sugar hitting a 2-week high, supported by a 3% jump in crude oil prices. Higher crude boosts ethanol demand, prompting mills to shift cane crushing from sugar to ethanol, tightening sugar supplies. The Brazilian real strengthened to a 2-year peak against the dollar, discouraging exports and underpinning prices. The USDA forecasts a 3% drop in Brazilian sugar output for 2026/27, while analysts Friday reduced global sugar surplus estimates, signaling tightening markets. Supply concerns include disruption from the Strait of Hormuz closure, affecting 6% of global sugar trade. Despite recent price pressure and high delivery volumes indicating weak demand, the interplay of energy markets and currency shifts provides support for sugar prices.
