ACRES CORN UPDATE:
Slightly higher closes on a late ral
ly were the result of spillover from
the beans and meal pits. Com was
trading lower throughout most of
the day, as talk of heavy deliveries
against December on first notice
day Monday weighed on prices.
Further pressure was exerted by
thoughts of heavy supplies of
generic certificates-coming up in
the next few weeks. Commercial
buying during most of the session
was fueled by expectations for
upcoming sales to South Korea.
Generic certificate premiums are
now-bid at 102-104%. December
corn closed up 1/4 cent at
$1.87-1/4 after posting a low of
$1.85-3/4.

settled sharply higher this after
noon in response to renewed
strength in soymeal. Possible
export pricing and ideas of tighten
ing supplies near term fueled buy
ing. Beans initially opened lower,
with losses maintained throughout
most of the session in light trading.
The rally came near the close on
rumors that further meal and/or
bean sales to the USSR had gone
unannounced by USDA and could
be reported after the close. No
announcement has been made as of
3:00 CST. The January option
posted gains of 7-3/4 cents, closing
at $5.97 after trading at $5.83-1/4
early in the session.

Wheat futures settled 2-1/2 to

yesterday that Morocco had been
targeted for export bonus. Further
export business with China was
confirmed after the close of the
session. Support also came from
the nearby soybean and soymeal
pits and bullish technical factors.
December wheat closed 2-1/2
cents higher, with gains limited by
CCC Wheat auction ideas, while
July posted gains of 5-3/4 cents.
ACRES CATTLE UPDATE:
Live cattle futures closed mixed
with December and February low
er & the deferreds higher. Losses
in the spot month were attributed
to cash connected pressure with
traders becoming sidelined as the
s67.objective was reached yester
day. New selling was generated by
ideas of larger supplies of cattle
near the end of Dec. and ideas of
lighter demand. Strong cash mark
ets lent support with fed cattle trad
ing as high as $70.00 in the Texas
Panhandle. Boxed beef movement
at higher prices pared further
