Barchart - Sugar prices continued their week-long slide on Thursday, with NY sugar dropping to a 1-month low and London sugar falling to a 3-week low. Negative carryover from Tuesday is weighing on sugar prices, after India's Food Secretary said the government has no plans to ban sugar exports this year, easing concerns that it could divert more sugar to make ethanol following the Iran war disruption to crude oil supplies.
