Coffee market review

Abstract

The coffee trade during September had little incentive for activity and was generally slow. A declining market characterized the beginning of the month and the succeeding weeks registred a few points up or down with the month closing: Santos4 contract, 16 to 24 points loss; Rio 7 contract, 21 to 35 points loss; and spot, no change. Colombian “H” contract, closing September 7 at 12.80, was 10 points higher than on the close of the preceding month.
