European Grain Markets
- Amid slumping wheat prices in Chicago, MATIF futures closed relatively convincingly on Friday and it remains to be seen which of the two markets misleads
- Corn markets on both sides of the Atlantic were unanimously positive on Friday, but on both, like wheat, the weekly trend remains negative.
- With falling oil and canola prices in Canada, MATIF rapeseed managed to rise on Friday, bringing the good news for this market to exhaust as well.
American Grain Markets
- In the short half-day trading session, the wheat market in Chicago is falling and in a rather impressive way
- With opposing production news from South America — good for the harvest in Brazil and bad in Argentina — soybean and corn markets rise slightly to moderately
Black Sea Grain Markets
- With grain exchanges falling, supply from Ukraine and Russia is slowing slightly, for which, at least in the case of Ukraine, military action and increasingly intermittent electricity are also to blame
- Without electricity and with the best will, no loading and unloading activities can be carried out, nor can borders be crossed
