The factors that will influence sugar prices this coming summer and autumn are the focus of my video.

WeatherWealth subscribers received this video a month ago; it covers the following:
1) How crops may be improving for sugar production regions in Thailand and Brazil;
2) India’s weather (#2 sugar producing country) will be very important this summer. The Indian government will ultimately make decisions with respect to their export market. If they hold back exports due to a poor crop, this will help the market later;
3) The importance of the Antarctic Oscillation Index (AAO), Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), and Eurasian winter snow cover are critical factors in predicting India's upcoming monsoon. Right now. I expect a healthy monsoon for most of India that will be beneficial to most crops, as that nation's trillion dollar economy depends on it;
4) Crude oil prices can greatly affect sugar's market value. What other criteria will be important to gauge sugar market direction?
5) What are some potential trading strategies?
