Coffee was already mentioned in the ninth century, the first time in Kaffa, a province in Ethiopia. Slaver brought the coffee in the 14th Century Arabia, where he until the middle of the 15th century was roasted and drunk. The coffee came with the rise of the Ottoman Empire, more and more popularity and is today the world most popular drink. In terms of market value, coffee is the world’s second most traded commodity after crude oil.
The price of coffee beans on the stock exchange is, however, for seven years, almost continuously down. Savvy investors know also to exploit this.
