FC Morning Grain Market Commentary for 8/22/2014

MARKET COMMENTARY

The markets are quiet but a little firmer this morning.  Soybeans are being lead around a bit by the cash market, which in places is extremely firm.  That general tightness is pushing the front end of the market higher, dragging November bean futures along with it a bit.  Also, another flash sale of new crop soybeans to China was announced at 8am this morning, which could give us enough strength to remain positive most of the day.  The Pro Farmer Crop Tour has the IA yield just under 179bpa which is less than what the USDA was showing earlier this month… This maybe can be the reason why corn is a penny higher this morning but overall there really isn’t much to go on for price direction.
 
Opening Calls
Corn steady to 1c higher
Soybeans 3 to 5 cents higher
