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.
