Afternoon Comments 06/17
Soybean traders seemingly sold futures in response to the weekly Export Inspections report, since the result fell modestly below the low forecasts posted beforehand. Expectations for a quick finish to spring 2013 plantings probably weighed upon the complex as well. Firm soyoil prices mitigated the downward action, because palm oil strength in the Asian markets spilled over into other vegetable oil quotes. July soybean futures fell 4.0 cents to $15.125/bushel as Monday trading ended, while July soyoil climbed 0.36 cents to 48.84 cents/pound, but July soybean meal slipped $1.6 to $449.1/ton.
