Wheat Rebounds Higher

Solid export news and hopes that China and Brazil may import more US wheat helped support the market Monday. From the floor of the CME Group, Derek Nelson shares his observations of Monday's cattle markets.

Nelson: "Monday in the livestock markets were bullish price action across the board. As the markets disseminated Friday's release of the Cattle on Feed Report. All cattle on feed was down 7.2 percent for the month of August year-over-year at the low end of estimates. While cattle placements were down a muffled 10.9 percent -- the lowest receipt since 1996. We had strong cash price action on Friday and I expect to see more of the same this week as projections are now estimated that we are going to see continued tightness in the coming months."
