Trade Idea – Commodities – Bearish bets on coffee hit record high
26th November 2015

Coffee prices to remain depressed

•         Last week the BRL staged a 3% rally as the incumbent Brazilian President, Dilma Rousseff, won a political victory aimed at narrowing the country’s growing budget deficit. The strengthening of the BRL sent the price of Arabica coffee soaring 8% from 23 month lows (see Figure 1, Source: Bloomberg) and partially reversed a downward trend that has plagued the soft commodity since the end of last year. Brazil is the largest global exporter of Arabica coffee and the recent weakening of its currency has, until September, significantly weighed on the coffee price[1]. In coming months, we expect support from favourable currency movements to fade and a strong coffee supply outlook for 2016/17 crop year to weigh on price, benefiting those investors with tactical short exposure to coffee.

Speculative coffee positioning reaches record low

•         According to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), short bets on coffee swelled to the highest level on record in the week to Nov 17 (see figure 2), reflecting the bearish sentiment that has dominated coffee trading until last week’s recovery. We believe that bearish sentiment will reassert and help to push coffee prices lower as soon as BRL strength abates. The Brazilian economy is currently under considerable duress as stagflation and political turmoil weigh on the nation’s prospects. Therefore, we believe that the optimism that has fuelled the recent BRL appreciation is fragile and will likely fade as the economy slips further into recession and political uncertainty persists.

Favourable supply outlook

•         The Brazilian harvest for 2015/16 is almost complete and despite the 2014 drought prompting forecasts of a large fall in production, output has only fallen 3% YoY (Source: United States Department of Agriculture). Looking ahead to next year, good rain in key producing regions is helping the flowering process of Brazilian coffee trees which should aid coffee cherry development and in turn increase the likelihood of a strong yield from the 2016/17 harvest.

•         Elsewhere, Columbia and Honduras have seen production grow 40% and 46% respectively over the past five years as tree renovation programmes, aimed at combatting coffee rust (disease that affects coffee plantations), pay considerable dividends (see Figure 3). Given that both are top five global exporters of coffee (third and fifth respectively) this trend will likely be another source of pressure on coffee prices in the near future.

What is the Bitcoin Halving?

The Bitcoin halving is a programmed event that reduces the reward for mining new coins by 50% approximately every four years, ultimately limiting the total supply of Bitcoin, akin to the scarcity of gold. This mechanism, embedded in Bitcoin’s protocol, aims to maintain its value proposition as a decentralized, fixed and immutable monetary system, although its performance is influenced by various factors that go beyond the halving.

How are miners impacted by the halving?

The Bitcoin halving impacts miners through reduced block rewards and shifts in profitability, influenced by Bitcoin’s price fluctuations. Miners may seek refinancing options to sustain operations, while decreased mining difficulty during downturns encourages cost-effectiveness and strengthens the network. As a result of this cycle’s unique demand, miners are selling less BTC on exchanges, indicating a more bullish stance amidst price surges and increased market accessibility driven by ETF inflows.

How can I get access via ETPs?

Easily access Bitcoin through Exchange-Traded Products (ETPs) listed on regulated exchanges. With these ETPs, you can trade Bitcoin via your regular brokerage accounts without the need for a digital wallet. Rest assured as you invest confidently, supported by transparent documentation and similar tax treatments as traditional ETPs or securities. Start trading Bitcoin ETPs today for a seamless investment experience that combines the convenience of traditional trading with the potential of cryptocurrency assets.

GinsGlobal lyfter fram unik investeringsmetod i utvecklande tekniskt landskap

Anthony Ginsberg, VD för GinsGlobal Index Fund gick med Steve Darling från Proactive för att ge en översikt och uppdatering om Tech Megatrend ETF (T3KE). Ginsberg fördjupade sig i fondens globala räckvidd och strategiska tillvägagångssätt och lyfte fram dess utmärkande egenskaper, investeringsmetod i utvecklande tekniskt landskap och investeringsstrategi.

Anthony Ginsberg, VD för GinsGlobal Index Fund gick med Steve Darling från Proactive för att ge en översikt och uppdatering om Tech Megatrend ETF (T3KE). Ginsberg fördjupade sig i fondens globala räckvidd och strategiska tillvägagångssätt och lyfte fram dess utmärkande egenskaper, investeringsmetod i utvecklande tekniskt landskap och investeringsstrategi.

Tech Megatrend ETF utmärker sig för sitt globala fotavtryck och omfattar ett mångsidigt teknikriktmärke med cirka 60 % exponering mot den amerikanska marknaden och betydande allokeringar till Japan, Kina och Europa. Till skillnad från NASDAQ, som är starkt koncentrerad till ett fåtal stora teknikföretag, använder GinsGlobal Index Fund ett lika viktat tillvägagångssätt över sina 120 innehav, där inget enskilt innehav normalt överstiger 2 %.

Denna strategi gör det möjligt för fonden att fånga ett brett spektrum av teknikunderteman, inklusive digital underhållning, sociala medier, blockchain, elfordon, cybersäkerhet, artificiell intelligens och robotik. Ginsberg underströk fondens gynnsamma pris-till-vinst-förhållande, som för närvarande svävar runt 18 gånger, vilket tyder på att dess aktier inte är övervärderade jämfört med vissa marknadssegment. Han lyfte också fram potentialen för expansion bortom megabolagsbolag, understödd av positiva ekonomiska indikatorer i USA och möjligheten till lägre räntor, vilket kan båda gott för medel- och småbolagsaktier.

När det gäller förvärvstrender noterade Ginsberg det aktiva engagemanget från både stora och medelstora företag i fusioner och förvärv, med medelstora företag som representerar attraktiva mål som inte utlöser antitrustproblem.

Han diskuterade också de potentiella effekterna av en stark dollar och den amerikanska regeringens initiativ som syftar till att minska beroendet av utländsk teknologi, vilket kan stärka Nordamerikas konkurrenskraft och stimulera landningstrender. Sammanfattningsvis belyser Ginsbergs insikter det dynamiska landskapet inom tekniksektorn och den strategiska positioneringen av Tech Megatrend ETF inom den.

Eftersom fonden fortsätter att navigera i marknadstrender och dra nytta av nya möjligheter, kan investerare förvänta sig att dra nytta av dess diversifierade portfölj och framtidsinriktade investeringsstrategi. Håll ögonen öppna för ytterligare uppdateringar eftersom GinsGlobal Index Fund fortsätter att driva innovation och tillväxt inom teknikområdet.
