Coffee Collapses, While Soybeans Surge

Coffee has been rising steadily, but over the past few weeks, the commodity is showing significant weakness. Coffee is down 2% today!

Meanwhile, soybeans are showing the strongest gains today! Dry weather in Argentina is affecting the crop there. This sounds familiar!
from Bloomberg:
"Soybeans reached a seven-week high and corn rose on speculation that warm, dry weather will reduce yield potential in Argentina, the world’s biggest shipper of soy-based animal feed and vegetable oil."
