Brief Market Overview: Poor Weather Yet to Change Outlook

  • Poor weather in India and Thailand could reduce 2019/20 production expectations over the coming month.
  • In the case of Thailand, surplus sugar this season is likely to be rolled ensuring an oversupply for next season in any case.
  • For India, high stock levels mean that production would need to be drastically lower for exports to not be needed next season.
  • If Indian exports weren’t to occur next season this would change our oversupplied outlook.
  • However, stocks would remain high worldwide reducing the need for buyers to rush to the market.
