Market Commentary

Midday Report 05/23


Soybean futures also traded weakly early Thursday morning, but later seemed to benefit from the USDA Export Sales report. Old crop sales reached 183,500 tonnes last week, while the top forecast was 100,000, and new crop sales netted 838,900 tonnes, easily topping the largest estimate at 450,000. However, traders appeared much less optimistic about new crop price prospects, possibly due to ideas plantings are progressing very rapidly. July soybean futures jumped 21.75 cents to $15.16/bushel late Thursday morning, while July soyoil slipped 0.09 cents to 49.55 cents/pound, and July soybean meal rose $5.2 to $445.8/ton.
