Chicago Wheat Market Rebounds on Government Action
Prices rallied after last week’s drop as government and exchange officials set minimum closing prices and announced a new 1940 crop loan rate around 64 cents a bushel. Wheat futures rose to near the high before easing, with notable gains in May and July contracts amid strong mill and baker demand. Kansas City hogs, cattle, and sheep markets opened mixed with price shifts reflecting slow demand and steady to weaker bids. Official livestock receipts and cash grain quotes for Kansas City and nearby markets are noted.
