Market Update

As of September 3, 2021 – The following market update was provided by Bridgecape Commodities.

Fonterra announced another cut to GDT volumes Thursday night, removing 10% from October and November volumes and 5% from December. These take the total volume removed from GDT since June to around 60,000mt or 30% of September to December availability. Fonterra again commented that it is seeing excellent demand outside of GDT, hence why they made the cuts. These cuts, a signal of the ongoing strength of demand being shown by large end users, plus the rally in SMP prices, seem to have improved sentiment for dairy buyers globally.
