All posts for the day December 11th, 2012
Neutral USDA report with almost nil for surprises and grains responded in kind today – the Jan report will be interesting. This one lived up to its billing. Technicals firming in Corn and Canola, continued sideways action in Beans and Bearish breakdown in Wheat. Fundamentally, Weather in S.America is the only real catalyst with big swing potential and I never believe that too much rain at seeding is as Bullish as the market sometimes makes it, so nothing in the news now to be too Bullish about in the next 2-3 weeks short of a Fiscal Cliff announcement that may drive the outsides higher.
