The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 846.24 points. The U.S. Dollar Index is up 0.140, and October crude oil is up $0.10 per barrel. December gold is down $3.10 per ounce. A crop tour last week finished up with a corn yield that was 6 bushels per acre below that of USDA, but history says that is common. Scouts reported finding more disease and dryness issues. Soybean yield was estimated just slightly below the August WASDE. There were some weekend showers in the central and southern Plains, but the forecast looks dry for the Eastern Corn Belt this week. Corn, beans and wheat are little changed early Sunday night.
