ACRES CORN UPDATE:
Com futures prices closed mixed
today with settlements from 3/4
:ent higher to 3/4 cent lower.
Pressure in the front three options
was attributed to the posting of
icavy delivery notices today,
totalling 6.6 million bushels
coupled with a slack near term
export outlook. Further pressure
was linked to an increase in over
night sales with the market open
ing under pressure from scattered
midwest protection of 1 to 2 cents.
New crop months'closed stronger
on bear spreading. The ability of
com to hold in a 2 cent range
while beans were plunging
impressed many traders. March
closed today at $2.71-3/4 after
trading from a low of $2.70-1/2 to
a high of $2.72-1/4.

ACRES SOYBEAN
UPDATE: Soybean futures prices
erased yesterday’s gains and
dropped from 10-1/2 to 12-1/2
cents on the old crop months while
the deferrcds lost from 6 to 7
cents. Session long pressure was
linked to the posting of heavy
delivery notices this morning
along with a weaker CIF basis.
Long liquidation was triggered
after beans failed to respond to
stronger wheat prices. March
closed 12 cents lower at $7.50-1/2
while November lost only 6-3/4
cents at $7.31-1/4.
ACRES WHEAT UPDATE:
Wheat futures added 2-3/4 to 4
cents to yesterday’s gains on buy
ing linked to news this morning
that the USSR was bidding- on

bonus. Further strength was tied to
news late yesterday of export
bonus targeting of 1 million metr
ic tonnes to Iraq. Ideas that China
may soon submit a bid for part of
its 2.0 MMT offered support along
with dry weather concerns in parts
of the hard red regions. Some sell
ing was featured on spillover from
sharply lower soybeans and hea

ACRES CATTLE UPDATE:
Live and feeder cattle ended
today’s session lower as wide
