State of Trade Shows Mixed U.S. and Canada Markets
Bradstreet reports mixed signals with strong South and Southwest improvement in business and rising iron and steel activity. Caution persists from unfavorable crop reports and weak dry goods demand, while rail earnings, bank clearings, and cotton prices climb. Export wheat declines and Canada sees uneven demand with gains in wool and staples alongside investor caution.
Market overview dampens crop outlook in Sept report
