Wednesday Morning Comments
Morning Market Direction: Corn down 2-3; Beans up 1 The grain markets are starting the day on the weak side. Volume has been steady vs. recent days. Yesterday's crop progress numbers showed corn harvested at just 22%. Corn maturity was at 73% vs denting at 96% which has analysts scratching their heads to quantify potential damage from the winter storm last weekend. Yesterday's EPA announcement regarding RFS and reallocations of the Small Refiner Exemptions (SRE) has caused angst in the Ethanol/Ag industry due to projections of partial SRE's being used in the reallocation calculations. Look for a mixed day today with headlines and and further analysis of this announcement. 4 of the 5 "analog" years to this fall's anemic corn export program start have seen the USDA cut its October forecast between now and final. The average decline for all five is 148 mbu; or 222 mbu for the 4 years with downward revisions. Brexit and the US/China trade deal have the markets a little uneasy. Mostly dry weather for the US Corn Belt today through Thursday. Showers, favoring southern and eastern areas Friday. Temps below normal today, near to normal Thursday and Friday.
