WASDE Report Yesterday's WASDE report lived up to the expectations of delivering some surprises to the market. The US corn yield came in a bushel higher than November, which is bearish. However, a big drop in harvested acres (79.2 million VS estimates of 80.763) helped slingshot prices back to where prices were just a few weeks ago. Soybean numbers were below expectations pretty much across the board (yield, harvested acres, production, ending stocks) which took prices back to technical resistance.
A Look at the Outside Markets Equity markets are lower in the early morning trade. Oil is steady, bit about a dollar off the overnight highs. The US Dollar is attempting to stabilize. |
