The market notes a halt to recent declines with signs of a rebound in the past three days as American and Winnipeg wheat show varied moves. It cites small old-crop demand, expectations of a large North American crop, tight world stocks, and potential price upturn tied to future demand. Barley and oats markets remain weak with low export demand, while flax stays in steady demand for exporters.
