🌽 Corn Market Update Corn futures fell victim to broader ag market selling on Monday, as weakness in the soy complex and also in the energy markets left prices with nowhere to go but down. We talked about it last week, but market fundamentals have meant little of late; its order flow and chart momentum that mean the most to price direction in the short term, and today, those things were clearly pointed lower. With rains continuing to fall in Brazil and the safrinha crop there off to a good start, the USDA's crop estimates in Argentina likely too low, and the prospects for an acreage figure this spring above the USDA's current estimate seemingly having better odds than not, we're just having a hard time finding something positive that could sustain a rally in the short term. Even after today's sell off, it would seem there are notably more downside price risks present than upside ones short of some kind of weather issue popping up in the next three-five months.
🌱 Soybean Market Update Concerns regarding Chinese buying of American soybeans returned to the forefront of the complex on Monday and led values to one of their worst days in many months, as concerns that additional business would now not occur led to a sharp exodus of market longs. From a nuts and bolts standpoint, its the idea that without the additional business, current export estimates are likely too high and ending stocks are likely too low that has produced a removal of premium, and this is what we've warned about for weeks now. Adding fuel to the fire were also headlines that the Iran war could now push the delay of the EPA's RVO announcement back to April, which just made things worse. The bottom line is that a limit down day coming out of a weekend of trade negotiations between the US and China that by most accounts was productive, would seem to be a particularly negative development that doesn't bode overly well now for an extension of the current rally.
🌾 Wheat Market Update Wheat futures closed lower to start the week on Monday, as group-wide selling from the other markets outweighed weekend news that Russian FOB export prices had reached their highest level since late last summer. Wide-ranging temperature swings have produced crop questions across the US wheat belt, but these also weren't seemingly enough to get additional premium into the space on Monday. With funds now near-neutral, it will be interesting to see from here whether market can the retain the same amount of upside vigor with there nowhere near the same amount of short covering potential that was available a month ago. ...

The FFA members at Iroquois West High School, along with the rest of the student body, will be hosting a clothing and food drive next week to support our neighbors to the north who were impacted by the recent severe and damaging storms. Please consider helping in any way you can. “Living to serve” isn’t just part of the FFA motto, it’s truly a way of life.
