  • Robusta Coffee Rallies Amid Dry Conditions in Vietnam and El Niño Concerns
    May 26, 2026, 9:31 AM EDT. Robusta coffee prices rose 1.68% on Friday due to dry weather in Vietnam's Central Highlands, threatening the country's coffee crop.

U.S. NOAA forecasts an 82% chance of El Niño developing. Despite recent price declines tied to improved supply forecasts and record expected harvests in Brazil, worsening weather and falling ICE inventory levels have underpinned prices.
