The U.S. Dollar Index is down 0.10 and August gold is down $9.30. Grain markets are softer to begin the new week. U.S. and Chinese officials are set to meet in London for the latest round of trade negotiations on Monday, the latest in positive steps following the conversation between Presidents Trump and Xi last Thursday. Meanwhile, tensions between Ukraine and Russia continue to escalate following both sides trading blows in the past week, the fear in the wheat market is that key Black Sea port infrastructure areas may be targeted or damaged. Weather and crop conditions will also take center stage in dictating the extent of the recent rallies in U.S. row crop markets, with Monday's Crop Progress report from the USDA setting the tone for the week.
