Tommy Grisafi with Nesvick Trading Company says soybeans and meal both saw a short covering bounce after a long string of lower days, while corn made more contract lows.
Brad Kooima of Kooima Kooima Varilek says cattle futures started higher early Monday on the heels of record cash. Grains tried to bounce but may have a tough time holding any gains with favorable weather, big yield ideas and trade uncertainty.
Bryan Doherty with Total Farm Marketing says grain markets were lower on Friday and for the week with pressure coming from non-threatening weather, big yield ideas as well as trade concerns tied to tariffs.
Scott Varilek with Kooima Kooima Varilek says live and feeder cattle futures are trying to recover after an ugly day Thursday that ended with bearish reversals. Grains are mixed on favorable weather and tariff news.
Alan Brugler, A&N Economics, says soybeans sank on demand concerns with large global supplies and China continuing to buy from South America. November soybeans fell below $10 and project even lower.
Kevin Duling, KD Investors, says corn is trying to bounce Wednesday off of new contract lows scored in old crop futures and wheat is also trying to recover after new lows on Tuesday.
Matt Bennett, AgMarket.Net, says it was an ugly day in the grain markets with old crop corn making new contract lows once again with spillover pressure from wheat and a higher dollar.
Garrett Toay, AgTraderTalk, says corn and soybeans continued to push back towards recent lows on weather as areas of the Corn Belt saw rain over the weekend and the heat is starting to ease.
Joe Kooima of Kooima Kooima Varilek says both live and feeder cattle futures gapped higher into all-time and contract highs again on Monday morning on the heels of the bullish USDA Cattle on Feed and Cattle Inventory Reports. Grains opened lower as weather is trumping export and trade news.
Scott Varilek with Kooima Kooima Varilek says both live and feeder cattle futures had a nice recovery and got within striking distance of the all-time highs set earlier in the week.
