The wheat market turned weaker in the week ending October 19 as slow European demand and ample North American supplies pushed futures down four to five cents per bushel. Argentine shipments remained high while U S and Canadian stocks reached a record 395 million bushels, about 125 million above last year. Cash markets tracked the futures decline.
The week saw weak and lower prices across soft winter wheat markets. Mill buying remained active in St. Louis with about 100000 bushels sold from elevator stocks while No. 2 soft red winter labeled $1.32 to $1.33 per bushel. Cincinnati trading was light with No. 2 red at $1.29 and No. 3 at $1.23. Eastern markets weakened with bids around $1.22 in Philadelphia and Baltimore offers at $1.26 to $1.24. Prices in Virginia Richmond ranged No. 2 soft red winter $1.24-$1.26 and No. 3 $1.21-$1.23. The piece closes with a stray comment on roads and keys.
Market report shows mild, clear conditions with steady demand and moderate wire inquiry. Carloads and bulk prices listed include U S No 1 Yorks and Grimes apples, various sizes, with shipments and cold storage sales noted across Martinsburg Cumberland Shenandoah Potomac area markets.
