Market Commentary

Afternoon Comments 05/21


The weekly Crop Progress report released Monday afternoon obviously depressed corn futures Tuesday, since the indicated surge in U.S. corn plantings easily exceeded expectations. Concurrent developments in the financial markets, particularly equity index slippage and U.S. dollar strength may have weighed upon prices early, but late mitigation of those moves seemed to take pressure off of commodities. Talk that recent old-crop price strength had sparked active farmer selling apparently weighed upon nearby futures. July corn fell 9.5 cents to $6.40/bushel Tuesday afternoon, while December ended the day unchanged at $5.2025.
