Chicago Trade Update Reflects Steady Prices and Low Stocks
Chicago correspondence reports trading remains robust with staples well maintained. Forward contracting eases amid a presidential year uncertainty, as supply stays tight and deliveries lag. Speculative grain activity is normal with a downward price bias but current levels are considered affordable. Wheat shipments from Argentina surge, Europe offers better terms than U S wheat, and a world crop pause could stall price gains into midsummer. Corn prices edge down slightly as buyers grow cautious, farmers may exceed merchant demand as spring plowing nears and market pressure drives bulls to buy back near 2 cents above 35 cents.
