Vietnam coffee farms resilient in face of drought, espresso prices may rise

Reported about 1 year ago

Despite facing the worst drought in nearly a decade, Vietnamese coffee growers are implementing clever strategies to maintain healthy yields. While the Mercantile Exchange of Vietnam predicts a 10-16% fall in output due to extreme heat, recent rains offer hope. However, uncertainty remains regarding whether this will offset the shortage of robusta beans, potentially leading to price hikes worldwide. Farmers are optimistic about their individual yields, with some employing innovative techniques like keeping trees for decades and using biopesticides. Though record high wholesale coffee prices were seen earlier this year, consumer prices have only slightly increased, signaling a potential future rise due to global robusta demand and farmers' ability to withhold goods.

Oil prices fall as stronger dollar impacts commodities markets

Reported about 1 year ago

Oil prices fell in early Asian trade for a second consecutive session due to a stronger dollar, which arose concerns of higher interest rates and dampened investors' risk appetite. Brent crude futures dropped 0.5% to $84.84 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures fell 0.5% to $80.34 a barrel. The surge in the dollar made dollar-denominated commodities less appealing to holders of other currencies. Despite this, both benchmark crude contracts saw a 3% increase last week with strong oil product demand in the U.S. and OPEC+ production cuts. Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and disruptions in Ecuador also supported oil prices.
