SUGAR
March white sugar was up $1.5, or 0.4pc, at $400.30 a tonne after touching a two-year high of $401.70 on Thursday.
March raw sugar closed up 0.1pc on Friday, having hit a two-year high of 14.58 cents on Thursday.
Speculators switched to a net long position of 35,987 raw sugar contracts in the week to Jan. 14, adding 57,210 long contracts, CFTC data showed.
Dealers said the data came in at the bottom end of expectations, meaning speculators have plenty of capacity to buy more.
"We expect a test of 15 cents in the short to near term. The market is attracting funds on the long side as (it) is forecast to be in deficit this year and 'needs to rally' to draw out sugar away from the ethanol market," said Sucden Financial.
Sugar deficit forecasts for 2019/20 are being revised up amid shrinking output in key regions such as India and Thailand, though high prices could eventually prompt India to export its pricey surplus stocks and tempt Brazil to produce more sugar.
