Afternoon Comments 06/18
Wheat futures rallied along with corn Tuesday. The slow pace of the winter wheat harvest indicated on the Monday afternoon USDA Crop Progress report apparently sparked buying interest, since it reminded traders that the delayed winter wheat crop could fall victim to hot, dry conditions during the weeks just ahead. Conversely, the spring wheat crop could thrive in a summery environment. July CBOT wheat climbed 7.0 cents to $6.875/bushel at its Tuesday settlement, while July KCBT wheat advanced 5.5 cents to $7.1925, whereas July MGE futures dipped 1.25 to $7.99.
