Morning Comment

Let’s cut it short, those days are just about the USDA WASDE, the day of the month the fundamentals matter… Or not!

Morning Comment

Weak day again as Soybeans closed down -10.75 cents, Corn -1.75 cents, Wheat -4.50 cents in Chicago, -3.25 cents in Kansas and -1.75 cents in Minneapolis. On the other side of the Pond, no exception, market was also very weak with MATIF Milling Wheat down -€0.75 and London Feed -£1.95.

Morning Comment

Dull Monday with Soybeans up 0.75 cent and Corn down -1.75 cent. Only wheat was a bit more active, ignoring the scaremongering coming from Australia and Russia and ended down -7.00 cents in Chicago, -6.75 cents in Kansas and -2.25 cents in Minneapolis.

Grains Commentary

A relatively quiet Friday apart on Soybeans as they rebounded +9.75 cents. They seem to continue their technical retracement after visiting sub 820 cents levels last month.

Mid Session Comment

Typical week Friday, buyers had left for the week-end already! Soybeans moved down -9.50 cents, Corn -8.50 cents, Wheat -4.00 cents in Chicago, -6.00 cents in Kansas and -7.50 cents in Minneapolis.

Mid Session Comment

Market moved down -14.25 cents on Corn yesterday, surprised by the extent of the US yield increase. Wheat moved down -12.00 cents in Chicago, -16.00 cents in Kansas and -10.25 cents in Minneapolis. On the other side of the Pond, London Feed was down -£1.35 and MATIF -€1.75.

Morning Comment

Friday’s session was interesting on MATIF Wheat as the usual scams and manipulation have come back in force on the U8 expiry with U8 being down -€17.75. A few happy guys around, the issue, funnily enough, it’s always the same guys!

Morning Comment

US Labor Day yesterday, markets were closed. To be honest they quite deserved it after a few weeks of being hectic. In Chicago, Soybeans moved down -1.07% during the week, +0.72% for Soybeans and +0.73% for Wheat.

Morning Comment

What could have been a day on the downside became very quickly a rallying day. One word. Russia. It is obvious, and if market discounted it with the lack of official news the past few days, he’s very naïve…

Mid Session Comment

Yesterday ended up being another day in the red as Soybeans moved down -7.25 cents, Corn -1.75 cent and Wheat was slaughtered again: -15.50 cents in Chicago, -17.50 cents in Kansas and -16.00 cents in Minneapolis. MATIF Wheat was also down, -€3.75, closing below €200 on U8. London Feed was closed.
