Abstract:The frozen concentrated orange juice (FCOJ) futures market is cited by literature as a prominent example of the failure of prices to reflect fundamentals. By contrary, this study shows that when theory clearly identifies the fundamental, e.g. at temperatures (here as: temps.) close to or below freezing, a close link exists btw. FCOJ prices and that fundamental. A model is used to explain about 50 percent of the return variation on days with freezing temps.
