Traders said local activity on both sides of the market kept prices seesawing throughout the session. "It was a big day for locals," one trader said. "They were chasing stops all day." May futures closed up 2.95 cents per lb, to 189.80 cents, after ranging from 192.00 to 183.00. Second-position July rose 0.55 cent, to 172.55, while the back months finished down 1.00 to 3.00. Volume was fairly heavy at an estimated 12,329 lots Thursday, but dealers said brisk spread trading accounted for much of the turnover. The May/July switch ballooned to 17.25 cents, up from 14.85 cents at Wednesday's close. The market headed higher at the outset, defying pre-opening expectations, as speculators followed through on Wednesday's strong close. Good option-related buying ahead of May options expiry next week was also cited. But a round of profit-taking and light origin selling kept the market under pressure, traders said. Some traders said this morning's upswing may have been helped by the Association of Coffee Producing Countries (ACPC) latest monthly report released late Wednesday, although other traders said viewed it as neutral. ACPC estimated that world coffee availability could fall to 17.91 million bags in the third quarter of 1997 from 18.37 million in the same quarter a year ago. The group also lowered its estimate for the Central American 1996/97 coffee crop to 15.4 million 60-kg bags from its previous forecast of 15.8 million. However, ACPS said world coffee consumption estimate to 76 million bags at the most on an annualized basis from 76.5 million previously due to recent retail price rises. On the week, the key May contract jumped 24.05 cents -- or more than 14 percent -- as speculative interest picked up amid ongoing supply concerns. However, traders said the CFTC Commitment of Traders report due Friday would probably not show a substantial increase in speculative long positions because the data only reflected operator's postions through this past Tuesday. After Thursday's close, CSCE reported certified coffee stocks rose by 1,730 60-kg bags, to 83,578 60-kg bags as of March 26. There were an additional 250 bags pending grading, the exchange said. The CSCE will be closed Friday for Easter, reopening on Monday. 281005 MET mar 97
