Marketline Report

I’m KayDee Gilkey with the Market Line Report for June 17, 2015.

Soybeans closed with sharp gains, corn had modest gains and wheat trade mostly flat. From the floor of the CME Group, Todd Horwtiz shares
Horwitz: “Tuesday’s grain saw mixed markets — soybeans very high, corn couple of cents higher, wheat pretty much flat. You are hearing all kind of reasons why: it’s too wet for soybeans, the corn could take enough water, we’ve got a big report coming out in two weeks. Bottom line is the markets have reached some sort of support level and certainly as a producer or farmer I’m not selling them down here. We’ve got all the news in the world that says that prices should go lower and yet they can’t drive them lower.”
Chicago July Wheat ended Tuesday up 2 cents at 5-47 and 1/2. July corn ended the day up 5 and 3/4 cents at 3-54.
