Giá cacao chịu tác động từ nhiều yếu tố phức tạp, chủ yếu xoay quanh động thái cung và cầu toàn cầu. Các quốc gia Tây Phi như Bờ Biển Ngà và Ghana là những nhà sản xuất cacao lớn nhất thế giới, do đó, bất kỳ biến động nào tại các khu vực này đều có ảnh hưởng đáng kể đến nguồn cung ứng.

Về phía cung, yếu tố thời tiết đóng vai trò cực kỳ quan trọng. Các hiện tượng khí hậu như El Nino hoặc La Nina, hạn hán kéo dài, mưa bão bất thường hay dịch bệnh cây trồng (ví dụ: bệnh thối đen vỏ quả) có thể làm giảm mạnh năng suất và sản lượng. Ngoài ra, chi phí sản xuất (phân bón, thuốc trừ sâu, nhân công), mức độ đầu tư vào cây trồng mới, và chính sách quản lý của các chính phủ sản xuất (như giá sàn, kiểm soát xuất khẩu) cũng ảnh hưởng trực tiếp đến nguồn cung trên thị trường. Mức độ tồn kho cacao toàn cầu tại các kho cảng lớn là một chỉ báo quan trọng về sự thắt chặt hay dư thừa nguồn cung.

Đối với cầu, sự tăng trưởng của ngành công nghiệp chế biến chocolate và các sản phẩm từ cacao là động lực chính. Nhu cầu tiêu thụ tại các thị trường lớn như Châu Âu, Bắc Mỹ và Châu Á, cùng với xu hướng tiêu dùng liên quan đến sức khỏe và chocolate cao cấp, đều tác động đến giá. Ngoài ra, các yếu tố khác như chính sách và địa chính trị cũng rất đáng chú ý. Bất ổn chính trị, xung đột tại các quốc gia sản xuất, hay các quy định mới về bền vững và chống phá rừng (như Quy định EUDR) có thể gây gián đoạn chuỗi cung ứng hoặc tăng chi phí sản xuất. Cuối cùng, tỷ giá hối đoái của USD (đồng tiền giao dịch chính), hoạt động đầu cơ của các quỹ đầu tư trên thị trường kỳ hạn cũng góp phần tạo nên biến động giá cacao.

The cocoa price forecast for the coming period continues to show a strong upward trend and remains at record highs, with potential for significant volatility.

The primary cause is a severe supply shortage from major producers in West Africa (Ivory Coast and Ghana), which account for approximately 70% of global output. Adverse weather conditions (drought caused by El Niño, followed by heavy rains causing floods), widespread disease (such as Cacao Swollen Shoot Virus Disease – CSSVD), and aging cocoa trees have severely impacted the harvest. Expected production for the 2023/2024 crop year is estimated to decrease significantly, driving global inventories to their lowest levels in decades.

Although high prices may begin to impact consumption demand and encourage producers to seek alternatives or reduce product sizes, this impact usually has a time lag. In the short and medium term, supply-demand pressure will remain the dominant factor, keeping cocoa prices anchored at high levels. Investors and businesses should closely monitor weather developments in West Africa, new production reports, and cocoa grinding data for the most updated outlook.

In summary, the cocoa price forecast for the coming period is to continue rising and remain at historic highs due to severe supply shortages, with a risk of high volatility.
