Wheat Rebounds Amid Peace Talks and Market Shakeout
World of Finance notes wheat futures firm after the Russian Duma rejects peace terms and U S non intervention signals. July wheat jumps to 1 40 with intraday gains near 8 percent, then settles higher than yesterday. Storage stocks for butter and creamery remain lower than last year as markets weigh inflation, loans, and munition orders. Banks cut loans and raise margins, while industrial earnings rise and contracts for munition shells stay fixed under war uncertainty.
