WEEKLY NATIONAL GRAIN MARKET REVIEW
Compared to last week, grain and soybean bids closed moderate to sharply
lower. The grains opened Monday in a negative tone following a bearish USDA
report last Friday. Additional pressure for corn and soybeans came from
favorable weather in South America, along with economy worries and uncertainties
compelling the markets. The stock market was lower with crude oil having sharp
losses and precious metals also lower. However, some positive news from
overnight export announcement and bullish NOPA crush numbers limit the losses
for soybeans. NOPA crush came in well above estimates at 153.54 million bushels
as compared to 119.73 in September. Wheat also saw some support from lower
winter wheat crop ratings which came in at 36 percent good to excellent, down 3
percent from last week. Wheat was 45-50 cents lower. Corn was mostly 16-22
cents lower. Sorghum was mostly 36 cents lower. Soybeans were 83-92 cents
lower.
