International Market: According to reports on Wednesday, sugar prices extended this week’s gains up to 5-week highs on solid sugar demand from Asia. The robust sugar demand in China is positive for prices after China’s General Administrations of Customs reported last Thursday that China’s Nov sugar imports surged +114% y/y to 710 MT and Jan-Nov China sugar imports rose +37.3% y/y to 4.36 MMT. Also, the Indonesia Sugar Refiners Association said last week that it expects Indonesia, Southeast Asia’s largest economy, to boost its sugar exports next year by +10% y/y to 3.3 MMT due to higher demand from the food and beverage industry. Strength in the Brazilian real against the dollar is also positive for sugar prices as the real on Wednesday rose to a 1-week high against the dollar. The stronger real curbs export selling by Brazil’s sugar producers.
