January 12th- Closing Market Commentary

Grains close high:

Corn + 25 cents/bu  (Mar @ 5.17 1/4)

Soybeans + 45 ¾ cents/bu (Mar @ 14.18 1/4)

Chi Wheat + 30 ¼ cents/bu (Mar @ 6.65)

Cdn $ +0.00335 (78.62 cents)

WTI Crude Oil +0.96/barrel (53.021)

Corn hit its limit today after the release of the bullish USDA report, and stayed “limit-up” as the trade closed this afternoon. Due to this, the CME is expanding corn’s limit to 40 cents, from 25 cents for tomorrow’s trading session. Wheat and soybean limits will stay the same, at 70 cents and 35 cents respectively, as futures traded under these values today.

It will be interesting to see if the trade can sustain the $5 corn futures and $14 soybean futures reached today as it performs during overnight trading. This threshold is extremely enticing for technical traders.

The USDA hit the markets with a bang today at 12pm. The big “data dump” of the year was extremely bullish for the trade. Results are below. If you have any questions, feel free to send Floyd or me an email or give us a call.

-US Corn carryout performed at 1.552 billion bushels, compared to estimates of 1.59 billion bushels, down from 1.702 billion bushels in December

-US Soybean carryout at 140 million bushels compared to estimate of 139 million bushels, down from 175 million bushels in December

- World corn, beans, and wheat stocks endings stocks for 20/21 all adjusted lower

In other news:

The Brazil Mato Grosso soybean harvest is predicted to be 15-20 days later than normal, pushing buyers back to the US for sales.
