Afternoon Comments 06/19
Corn futures resumed their early-week rally Wednesday after dipping Tuesday night. General supply tightness probably offered support despite news of diminished ethanol industry production last week. But the latest forecasts point to hot, dry Corn Belt conditions later this month, which could stress the late-planted crop. In addition, a Memphis-based firm lowered its estimates of U.S. acreage Wednesday morning, which probably supported prices as well. July corn climbed 9.0 cents to $6.825/bushel at its Wednesday close, while December jumped 20.0 cents to $5.705.
