Wheat Rallies on Positive Soybean and Corn News

I’m KayDee Gilkey with the Market Line Report for October 24, 2014.
All grains were in the black on Thursday. From the floor of the CME Group, Larry Shover shares his observations of Thursday’s markets.
Shover: “Well, no lack of action here at the CME Group on Thursday. When we talk about the grain markets, we have to talk about soybeans. After the sales report, a little bit of a lag but then we end up jumping mid-day, beans close up 28 cents. Blowing the doors of estimates for combined sales. Moving on to wheat — wheat was in the black all day but did have a slightly volatile session and Decs closed up five cents. Weekly sales were actually a little lower or the low end of consensus at 275,200 metric tons.”
