Morning Comments 05/23
The fact that wheat futures had not rallied as strongly as corn and beans lately may explain their relatively firm 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 translate into rising prices. July CBOT wheat futures advanced 3.5 cents to $6.92/bushel in early Thursday trading, while July KCBT wheat added 3.75 to $7.47, and July MGE futures rose 2.25 cents to $8.10.
