  • Coffee Prices Decline on Prospects of Record Brazilian Crop
    May 1, 2026, 2:12 PM EDT. Coffee prices edged lower, with July arabica down 0.35% and ICE robusta off 0.36%, pressured by forecasts of a record Brazilian coffee harvest in 2026/27. The Coffee Trading Academy projects a 12% rise to 71.4 million bags, supported by Marex Group and StoneX estimates exceeding 75 million bags. This surge, combined with a 14% rise in Vietnam's coffee exports, signals a global surplus increase to 10 million bags, the largest in six years. However, tight current supplies, including a 2-month low in ICE arabica inventory and potential supply risks from a prolonged US-Iran conflict threatening the Strait of Hormuz, are providing some price support. Brazilian March exports declined sharply, while ICE robusta stocks also hit a 16-month low, balancing the bullish and bearish forces.
