Daily Market Letter From Long Commission Co
The letter notes a start to buy corn as a bear rally. prices rose from 5 to about 6% cents in September delivery amid foreign credit hopes and exchange stabilization. Oats weakened after corn’s decline. provisions fluctuated but closed higher after weakness and stop orders. Hog demand remained tepid. Stocks opened higher, fell on strikes and FX moves, then recovered much of the losses. The piece frames reconstruction era as a prelude to future prosperity with prices seen as reasonable in retrospect.
