Grain markets have
struggled in the wake of USDA's August crop reports, with good production
prospects, favorable weather and bearish outside markets pressuring prices. With
stocks of corn, soybeans and wheat projected to increase in the coming year,
some producers are getting nervous that further downside potential exists into
fall.
The Farm Futures
marking team discusses downside targets and what to look for, in this week's
edition of The Buzz. Senior Editor Bryce Knorr takes an in-depth look at the
price charts, a key concern with corn and wheat making multi-year lows. Soybeans
are still relatively strong due to tight old crop supplies, but the November
futures chart is tossing off plenty of bearish signals, according to
Knorr.
Market analyst Arlan
Suderman says $3 corn should hold in theory, but could fall if funds exit
positions or start selling outright. That would be painful in the short run, but
would likely increase demand substantially, setting the stage for a faster
rebound in 2010.
