Continued Higher Prices Across the Grains

Continued Higher Prices Across the Grains

I’m KayDee Gilkey with the Market Line Report for October 30, 2014.
Wheat is benefiting from demand in other grains as prices are higher across the complexes. From the floor of the CME Group Todd Horwitz shares his observations of Wednesday’s markets.
Horwitz: “Wednesday’s grain — big rally. Markets are moving and as we’ve talked about a couple of times in the last couple of weeks — the markets were looking for bottoms and it looks like they’ve found them. We saw a very nice rally — soybeans have rallied 15 percent off the lows. Corn has rallied 20 percent off the lows and wheat has rallied about 8 percent off the lows. It looks like now I would say — I’m not a seller here — but I think you might want to take some profit off the table here. I think probably $3.80 upside in corn here short-term.”
