Sugar prices Wednesday closed moderately lower and were under pressure from a slump in crude oil prices. On Wednesday, WTI crude (CLZ23) fell more than -2% to a 3-1/2 month low, which undercuts ethanol prices and may prompt global sugar mills to divert more cane crushing toward sugar production than ethanol, thus boosting sugar supplies.
