Cocoa prices have experienced significant volatility, with a notable drop this week due to commercial buyers holding back from purchasing beans. J.P. Morgan predicts cocoa prices will trade higher for an extended period. The market is described as troubled, broken, and illiquid, leading to a near 30% slump in cocoa prices.
