MidCo comments: 10/27/26
- Good morning. It's a sort of turn-around-Tuesday this morning after the lower trade seen to start the week on Monday, with the beans and meal higher, the oil lower, and the feed-grains not doing a lot of anything to get the second trading day of the week started. There wasn't much of anything to note with yesterday afternoon's crop progress update, which presumably leaves traders again to focus on the ongoing geopolitical uncertainty around the world, which now also includes Brazil along with Iran, China, and Russia/Ukraine. There's the crop specific side of the market, which includes production, crop quality, weather, etc., but then there's also this other "dark side" of the market, which includes ongoing wars, political strife, and macro-level inflation; both impact CBOT ag futures, but the question into the end of the year is which will win out and see more market influence into 2027. In the meantime, price discovery likely stays a convoluted affair for the foreseeable future, with headline risk remaining elevated.
Corn futures into Tuesday morning are trading unchanged to a penny lower, soybean futures are trading 5-8 cents higher, and the Chicago wheat market is trading unchanged to a penny lower also. |
