🌽 Corn Market Update Corn futures closed unchanged to slightly higher to start the week this week, with prices seeing a fairly wide-ranging start to the week despite not actually ending up going anywhere by the end of the day as a morning rally across the space failed into the noon hour. May futures were able to score new six-week highs on the strong export data this morning, but this is becoming old news to some extent, which is why it wasn't able to sustain buying throughout the day. The problem in the corn market isn't that the world doesn't have anywhere for supplies to go, its that the world's largest producers are all going to have record or near-record crops at the same time, which almost always drives prices lower regardless of what demand does. Yes, low prices cure low prices at some point, but when everybody has low prices and yours aren't the cheapest, that process takes longer to work out than normal as buyers can simply turn elsewhere if any one country's products get too expensive.
🌱 Soybean Market Update The soy complex was on a bit of a roller coaster on Monday, as bean futures traded a good 20+ cent range throughout the day before largely finishing near unchanged, while the products were also wide-ranging and mixed on another round of RVO headlines. Ideas coming out of the weekend that the Chinese were now less likely to make good on additional purchases of US beans was the source of the early pressure, and was reasonable given some 5+ MMTs of the original 12 has yet to ship and also as the market is now trying to pencil in another 8 MMTs requested by Trump a couple weeks ago. There wasn't a lot explicitly new as far as the RVO is concerned, but traders again decided to press the buy button on headlines that the EPA would be would be submitting its proposal to the White House this week, setting the table for a ruling then in the next two to four weeks. Why this headline continues to get such fanfare we are not sure, but its been enough to push the market to new contract highs multiple times now in recent days
🌾 Wheat Market Update After trading to their highest level since last July early in the session on Monday, wheat futures reversed course and finished the day lower for the first time since last Tuesday by the end of the day as the buying wasn't able to be sustained beyond the noon hour. Despite the turnaround though, the push to new highs amid Friday's commitment of traders report still showing funds still sitting on a fairly sizeable net-short position is not nothing, and is a possible indicator that perhaps there is more at play here than just speculative money flows. We talk about in corn and beans, but remember, this is a futures market, and one that has been talking about global oversupply for months now. At some point, focus will shift to something else and this is maybe what has gotten fund traders to begin adjusting positions over the last few weeks. ... See MoreSee Less
