Global coffee prices today turned slightly lower on both the London and New York exchanges as the Fed began its first day of meetings. A weaker Brazilian real pushed traders to sell their stock in the market, causing Arabica prices to decline.

The global currency market is in a state of anticipation, with all upward or downward movements temporary as markets await the Fed's official decision. Speculation on the exchanges is focused on the possibility of the Fed lowering interest rates during its December 18–19 meeting, with particular attention to projections for 2025.

Additionally, this week is packed with meetings of central banks worldwide. Among the major central banks, the Fed, the Bank of England (BOE), and the Bank of Japan (BOJ) are expected to announce their final interest rate decisions for 2024.

Monetary policymakers across other economies in Southeast Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America are also expected to adjust interest rates during their respective meetings this week.

Thus, global coffee prices on December 18, 2024, simultaneously declined slightly compared to yesterday.
