This is Bob Larson with the Market Line Report for Monday, Nov 5th. Foreign activities rally the grain markets a bit in Friday trading. From the floor of the CME in Chicago, here's Virginia McGathey.

McGATHEY ... "Now, wheat was steady today. It kind of traded on both sides of the market. Russia will possibly suspend some of their shipments from about four or five different ports. Now the interesting thing is that they've said this like all summer and every time we get a report like this the market starts to rally. It seems like we're crying wolf maybe a little bit too much and that's why we didn't see that much of a response, so we've been hanging around that $5 mar. It's become resistance and support back and forth, but we're hanging right around there and we're actually a little bit above it. So, mostly everything is bearish really for wheat and the total commitments completely for shipments is as worse as it's been since 1990."
