Barchart - Sugar prices settled higher on Thursday as a slide in the dollar index (DXY00) to a 1-week low sparked short-covering in sugar futures. On Tuesday, NY sugar fell to a 3-week low, and London sugar dropped to a 4.25-year nearest-futures low. The outlook for robust global sugar supplies is weighing on prices.  On Monday, BMI Group projected a global 2025/26 sugar surplus of 10.5 MMT, and last Tuesday, Covrig Analytics projected a global 2025/25 sugar surplus of 4.1 MMT.
