Summary
St. Joseph, MO
November 6,2002
Report Supplied By USDA
Lack of new export business and light
technical selling on the Boards lent weak
ness to wheat and com bids. However,
soybean bids shot higher due to spillover
strength from soy oil markets. Corn bids
also saw light support from technical buy
ing and export optimism. Wheat 4 to 9
cents lower. Com mixed, 2 cents lower to
1 cent higher. Sorghum 2 cents higher.
Soybeans 2 to 8 cents higher.
