Afternoon Comments 05/23
The fact that wheat futures had not performed as well as corn and beans lately may help explain their relatively strong reaction to the weekly USDA Export Sales report. Both old and new crop wheat sales, at 239,000 and 713,600 tonnes, respectively, topped pre-report expectations, which then seemed to boost futures prices. The big U.S. dollar decline may also have encouraged buying. July CBOT wheat futures surged 14.75 cents to $7.0325/bushel at its Thursday settlement, while July KCBT wheat advanced 10.5 cents to $7.545, and July MGE futures gained 5.5 cents to $8.1325.
