Midday Report 05/22
There seemed to be little fresh news concerning wheat Wednesday morning, although some traders may have responded to a private forecast of 2013/14 global production below the recent USDA prediction. Otherwise, the golden grain markets almost surely benefited from concurrent corn gains. July CBOT wheat futures leapt 10.0 cents to $6.905/bushel in Wednesday morning trading, and July KCBT wheat advanced 9.5 to $7.48, whereas July MGE futures declined 2.25 cents to $8.1125.
