BIZARRE: Concerns about a global supply squeeze lifts coffee prices | Mind Blowing Facts

September arabica coffee (KCU26) closed up +7.00 (+2.07%) on Monday, and September ICE robusta coffee (RMU26) closed up +49 (+1.35%).

Coffee prices settled sharply higher on Monday, with arabica soaring to a 6-week high amid the slow pace of Brazil's coffee harvest. Safras & Mercado reported last Friday that the Brazil 2026/27 coffee harvest was 90% completed as of August 12, behind 97% last year and the 5-year average of 94%. Brazil's arabica coffee harvest was 86% complete, behind last year's 95%. Meanwhile, the harvest among members of Cooxupe co-op was 74.6% complete as of August 7, behind last year's comparable figure of 80.4%, according to a report released last Wednesday.
