On the morning of June 21, coffee prices in the Central Highlands provinces decreased by VND 5,000/kg compared to yesterday, bringing the general level to VND 95,500 - VND 96,000/kg. Specifically, Dak Lak, Gia Lai and Dak Nong are all at 96,000 VND/kg, while Lam Dong maintains the lowest level of 95,500 VND/kg.
Overall, domestic coffee prices have lost more than VND17,000/kg for the whole week, equivalent to nearly 15% of the value. This is the week with the strongest decline since the beginning of the year, when the market was affected by the double selling trend on international exchanges and the strong increase in domestic closing pressure.
On the London Stock Exchange, Robusta futures for July 2025 fell sharply by 147 USD/ton, to 3,887 USD/ton. Subsequent terms such as September, November and January 2026 also simultaneously lost 142 - 146 USD/ton, bringing the price level down to the lowest level in the past 6 weeks.
The New York Stock Exchange continues to be the focus of a decline as Arabica prices fell sharply for the sixth consecutive session. The September 2025 term lost an additional 7.25 cents/lb to 315.05 cents/lb, while longer terms such as December and March 2026 also lost from 7.85 - 8.15 cents/lb, retreating to the 305 - 310 cents/lb range.
According to analysts, the market is being affected by concerns about weakening demand in the second half of the year, along with profit-taking psychology when prices have experienced a period of hot increase in April - 5. Some signals that supply from Brazil and Indonesia is recovering also increase selling pressure.
Without strong supporting information in the short term, coffee prices are forecast to continue to be under pressure to adjust and fluctuate within a low range. Exporters and domestic enterprises are advised to be cautious in catching the bottom and should prioritize exchange rate risk management, especially when the USD shows signs of increasing again.
