Cardamom remained weak for the second consecutive day, shedding Rs 8.10 to Rs 1,370 per kg in futures market, today on profit-booking by speculators at prevailing higher levels, driven by a weak spot market.
Adequate stock position in the physical market following higher supplies from producing belts kept pressure on cardamom futures.

August cardamom declined by Rs 3, or 0.21%, to Rs 1,413 per kg, in 564 lots.
Market analysts said continued profit booking by speculators, driven by a weak trend at the spot market on sluggish demand against adequate stocks position led to the fall in cardamom prices.
