Wheat Continues Up
I'm KayDee Gilkey with the Market Line Report for September 30, 2013.The market closed higher for five sessions in a row and closed above the 100-day moving average for the first time since December 10th of last year. From the floor of the CME Group, Chris Robinson shares his observations of Friday's markets.
Robinson: "On Friday's grain trade we had kinda of two-sided trade in front of Monday the 30th's USDA report. That report is going to come out at 11 a.m. That is a stock's report. The trade is anticipating some news as to what is exactly going on with current supply. The feeling is that there may be some bullish news on the horizon for wheat. But we will just have to wait and see because no one knows what the USDA will say until they actually release it."
