Wheat Dragged Lower By Corn Spillover

Wheat Dragged Lower By Corn Spillover

I’m KayDee Gilkey with the Market Line Report for July 24, 2013. ?
September Chicago wheat pushed to a new low for the move Tuesday but managed to close above its early July lows as buyers came into the market near the end of the session. From the floor of the CME Group, Scott Shellady shares his observations of Tuesday’s markets.
Shellady: “So the story today was we really saw some weakness in the front month bean complex which dragged all the other beans down with it. We saw corn really surprise some people with some decent liquidation today -- kinda market copulation, giving up the ghost. I still think we will get another scare to the upside, if you are long that will be a good chance to sell it. I’m revising my downside target to closer to $4 rather than $4.50. So really right now it is an ugly scene over there but things got cheaper today than from yesterday.”
