Market Commentary
5/21/2013
Good Morning,
December corn posted a new contract low yesterday morning and the crop progress report coupled with favorable weather drove both July and December even lower overnight. Corn planting was 71% complete as growers planted a whopping 43% of the crop in the past week. On a state to state basis Illinois was 74% complete, Iowa 71%, Wisconsin 43% and Minnesota 70%. Soybeans were 24% planted nationwide.
July and September corn both lost 13 cents overnight while December was off 8. Look for additional profit taking this morning. Weather looks to be mostly favorable, especially given the planting progress. Next week should see us virtually done and continued rainfall will be seen as nothing but favorable from here forward.
Spot cash basis is strong and will likely continue to appreciate. It will become more difficult for front month futures to gain substantially on the Dec given the current crop potential leaving basis to do a lot of the heavy lifting.
Have a good day,
Dale Drachenberg
