Past performance of Coffee Arabica price

During the last decade the US Coffee Arabica price experienced significant fluctuations under the influence of multiple factors: seasonality, changes in supply and demand, and changes in the exchange rate between the US dollar and the currency of coffee producing countries.

Throughout the decade this commodity had recorded the highest price in the first half of 2011 when it was trading at slightly above $3 (£2.27).

The price chart shows that there are a couple of major peaks (including the decade high value) – with each one at a level lower than the previous one and smaller peaks in between.
