Afternoon Comments 05/17
The equity and U.S. dollar markets proved quite strong again Friday, but commodity traders seemed to pay more attention to the negative demand aspects of the greenback rally than to the economic strength implied by stock gains. As for corn, persistent old crop tightness continued supporting nearby futures, while optimism about plantings this week weighed upon deferreds. July corn surged 11.25 cents to $6.5275/bushel in Friday trading, while December dipped 4.5 cents to $5.195.
