DCA benchmarks: Cheese commentary week 25

DCA cheese benchmarks were marked by a clear decline in week 25 (June 18), with foiled cheeses and Mozzarella recording the sharpest declines amid ample availability and cautious buying activity. The Cheddar complex remained comparatively resilient, although increasing volumes from Ireland and the UK could add further pressure in the coming weeks. Emmentaler held broadly stable, while naturally ripened Gouda also moved lower. Market sentiment remained bearish overall, with quiet trading conditions, limited urgency from buyers, and expectations of further price declines through the summer.
