Afternoon Comments 05/23
Corn futures seemingly suffered a relapse in the wake of their Wednesday rally Thursday morning, but came back later. Persistent cash market firmness probably boosted prices, as did the weekly USDA Export Sales report. The old crop result, at 104,500 tonnes, came in at the lower end of expectations, but the new crop figure, at 341,600 tonnes topped all published forecasts. July corn climbed 3.5 cents to $6.62/bushel at its Thursday close, while December added 4.25 cents to $5.3475.
