ICE Raw Sugar Up 0.72% for the Week; Arabica Coffee Down 3.35%
The split within coffee is the more telling signal: arabica's slide against robusta's gain points to pressure specific to the higher-grade contract rather than a uniform demand story, while sugar's modest advance looks like quiet consolidation. Cocoa's sharper decline in both New York and London stands out as the week's clearest mover among the softs. Whether the arabica-robusta divergence persists or converges is the open question, since it says more about underlying market structure than any single weekly print.
