Afternoon Comments 05/20
The Monday morning USDA Export Inspections report stated the latest wheat figure slightly above forecasts, which seemingly offered support for nearby futures. Moderate U.S. dollar losses and the precious-metal led commodity rebound might explain the last gains. July CBOT wheat futures settled 2.0 cents higher at $6.8525/bushel Monday, then rose farther in electronic action. July KCBT wheat rallied 7.25 to $7.45, while July MGE futures gained 7.5 cents to $8.1125.
