Analysts say short coffee investors may benefit as emerging-market currencies weaken, with the Brazilian real down about 25% this year. Brazil and Colombia, the largest Arabica suppliers, have seen their currencies lose value against the dollar, which can encourage exports.
Brazil's coffee exports rose in August from a year earlier, and Arabica futures hit a 1.5-year low.
A weaker real lowers Brazilian farmer costs in dollar terms, encouraging larger exports and adding to global supply, which pressures coffee prices. For feed buyers, the currency move is the main signal, since it also affects the cost of Brazilian soy and corn exports.
