Analysis: As wheat prices soar, the world’s consumers vote with their feet
Global wheat consumption is headed for its biggest annual decline in decades as record inflation forces consumers and companies to use less and replace the grain with cheaper alternatives, amid growing food insecurity. Consumers may face even higher wheat prices in the second half of 2022 as importers, who until now have supplied cargoes bought several months earlier at cheaper prices, pass on the costs from when wheat prices scaled decade highs in May.

His previous career-high ranking was 358, achieved mid-July this year. Vietnam’s best tennis player was in impressive form with a streak of 24 consecutive wins in the past two months before losing to Japan’s Yuta Shimizu in the final of the M15 Kuching, also in Malaysia, last weekend. Nam’s ranking could get higher next week after his M15 Kuching result is factored in. This moves Nam closer to the goal that he’d set earlier this year of getting into the top 300. From now until the end of the year, he can accumulate more points from many tournaments held in Vietnam. Next, Nam will join the Vietnam national tennis team for the 2022 Davis Cup Group III Asia-Pacific tournament, which will take place in Tay Ninh, southern Vietnam, from August 10 to 13. … [Read more...] about Vietnam tennis ace jumps to career-high world ranking
