A6-Lancaster ' National Grain Market St. Joseph, MO Tuesday November 21, 1995 USDA-MO Dept Ag Market Newt Daily National Grain Summary Grain and soybean bids were all lower in slow trading ahead of the holiday this week. No new exports were reported over night for any commodity and profit taking set in on the board. Wheat 1 to 7 cents low er. Com 1 to 4 cents lower. Sorghum S to 8 cents lower. Soy- beans 1 to 6 cents lower. Wheat bids lost yesterday's gains in pre holiday trading. Export demand continued nill and nothing on the books at this time. Some dry weather in winter wheat growing areas, limited declines. Com and soybean bids extended Monday's losses as export sales re- main quiet, fund selling on the board continued and a pick up in farmer selling ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday. This could be the story the test of the week. Export demand: Purchaser Commodity Tonnage Del date Nothing new to report.
