The report notes unsettled cooler weather and a government forecast that bears were out as shorts covered. Wheat receipts were light with premiums rising while a Minneapolis purchase of 100000 bushels and a government Spring wheat rise to 322 600 000 bu supported bearish sentiment. Corn showed early strength but closed weak as shorts covered. oats gained early but ended with slight losses amid strong cash demand for oats. Provisions were easy with pork weakest though lard saw higher prices amid tepid domestic demand.
