CHARTS AND COMMENTS

Soft commodities into autumn 2022

Let us see if Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa collectively make it back up into the autumn this year.

The weekly chart above consists of Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa and is made to have them equally weighted.

The last July's have seen these soft commodities finding support to prices throughout the month of July. Only time will show if this is the case in 2022 as well, in an otherwise strong inflationary environment.

 


COFFEE, SUGAR AND COCOA IN APRIL 2022

COFFEE SUGAR AND COCOA WITH ZERO INFLATION

After the first week of trading in April of 2022 commodity markets see Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa collectively sideways over the past 4 weeks. Since the beginning of the year they are + 3.9%. To regain the February top, markets need to soar + 8.5%. 

Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa are collectively also trading lower than February 2020, November 2020, and October 2021.

As you see from the chart, there is still zero inflation to these commodities prices. For now the three soft 's are trading horisontal, not up, not down.

Facts on Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa

So what about inflation - any pressure from Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa prices?

Absoulutely NOT. Looking at the 3 common soft commodities there is very little inflation in broader terms;  Since February 2020 into July this year, these commodities actually collectively fell 17%. The latest 13 weeks they are up 16%. The soft commodity markets are still lower than they where in February 2020, and also compared to December of last year.

The question becomes rather if it is ok to view them all 3 in the very same chart...

 

Looking at the weekly graph, there now seems to be collectively price resistance around the two former peaks formed the last two winterseasons. After the recent upside price pressure, history shows prices could quickly reverse down again or pause at current levels.

Soft commodities to Oct 19th

- Blending Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa prices in one chart below.

The chart above shows how the three commodities are developing in 2021 vs earlier years. The weaker seasonal period from late February to May produced no change this year. The current and yearly stronger seasonal stage (May to October) is so far producing + 15%. 

According to seasonality and its historical facts, there is potentially more upside over the next 2 months. Lately, it has been coffee, and now it's sugar driving the prices higher. Cococa could soon be picking up steam also. To see each commodity individually, head over to their respective sections for the regular updates. Obviously, there will be breaks along the way for the price developments.

Trading is risky, it is vital to always to keep stop losses in place at a preferred level in - for financial instrument.
