Good morning!

Our grain markets were higher last night and are still higher this morning, led by soybeans.  Soybeans are receiving most of their strength on follow-through buying from Friday’s trade.  Rumors were rampant on Friday that China bought as many as 10 cargoes of U.S. gulf soybeans for Jan/Feb – and they may not be done.  This has basis and spreads both rallying.

The outside markets aren’t offering much direction yet this morning – the DOW is called a bit higher while the dollar trades steady, crude oil is a touch higher and gold is a touch lower. 

Currently
Corn is steady/mixed
Soybeans are up 6 to 10 cents
