JOSEPH, MO DECEMBER 18, 1996 Wheat bids moved higher again due to fund buying on the board, the cold snap which threatens new crap wheat, and con tinued rising prices in Argentine. Com and soybean bids fell slightly lower on lack of fresh export orders and profit taking on the board. Wheat 3 to 8 cents higher. Com 1 to 3 cents lower. Sorghum mixed. Soybeans steady to 6 cents lower. The dropping temperatures in new crop wheat areas con tinue to threaten winterkill problems if there is no anowcover. There are no reports of damage yet but each day brings concern. Fundamental buying was noted in wheat pits today as reports that Argentine wheat prices continue to rite and their available wheat shrinks. Nothing new to report on export sales overnight for any commodity making com and soybean bids lower.
