Corn: For the December contract, we look for first good support around 781 with larger support found at 771. On the resistance side, we look for sellers to start coming in around 815.

Soybeans: We are still beating USDA expectations for exports, which even at these elevated prices is still surprising to see how little demand has been shut off. Bottom line for the beans is we can still be friendly for the next few weeks until we start to hear more about the South American crop…Cordon Sroka

What was interesting about the Russian wheat sale was all last week there was speculation that Russia might stop wheat exports due to tight supplies and then over the weekend they sell a chunk of their supplies. With the recent run-up in U.S. wheat price, the U.S. has pretty much priced ourselves out of the international market…Jim McCormick
