Arabica Coffee Futures Remain Volatile

2025-11-06 15:52 By Luisa Carvalho 1 min. read

Arabica coffee futures have been fluctuating around $4 per pound since early October, as positive fundamentals lingered.

The sustained decline in coffee inventories, below-average rainfall in Brazil’s top arabica region, Minas Gerais, and tariffs uncertainty continue to threaten global supplies.

Typhoon-related risks in Vietnam’s Robusta regions further supported Arabica prices, as traders assessed potential supply disruptions.

Meanwhile, Arabica coffee stocks on the ICE are currently at their lowest level in a year and a half, around 430,000 60kg bags, close to the levels seen at the end of 2023.

More encouragingly, Reuters reported that global traders are sending about 150,000 60kg bags of Brazilian Arabica coffee to ICE exchange warehouses in Europe, a move that could help replenish stocks and ease near-record prices.

Arabica Coffee Futures Below $3 per Pound
Arabica coffee futures have traded below $3 per pound since late March, amid expectations that the next harvest will continue to develop well in top grower Brazil, improving supply prospects. Dry weather conditions prevail in the main producing regions between the Southeast and Bahia, although scattered rains are being reported, which should support crop growth by improving soil moisture and overall crop conditions. Dealers noted that farmers are holding back sales ahead of an expected bumper harvest, while also monitoring prices, exchange rates and margins. Meanwhile, the geopolitical turmoil continues to impact costs and logistical security, creating a climate of great uncertainty and increasing volatility. The International Coffee Organization (ICO) said recently that rising fertilizer prices linked to geopolitical tensions pose a risk of pushing up costs for coffee growers worldwide and could impact production.
