Grains

OMAHA (DTN) -- Posted 12:45 -- December corn is down 2 cents per bushel, November soybeans are down 3 cents, December KC wheat is down 6 cents, December Chicago wheat is down 2 3/4 cents and MIAX December Minneapolis wheat is down 0.0300 cents. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 197.63 points. The U.S. Dollar Index is up 0.300 and October crude oil is up $0.50 per barrel. December gold is up $3.30 per ounce. Heading into the Tuesday close, corn, wheat, soybeans and bean oil are under pressure while soy meal is enjoying a modest bounce. The market is choppy ahead of Friday's September crop production report with a fall in yield likely. Any drop in soy yield from August is likely to be offset by the lack of China demand.

Posted 10:32 -- December corn is down 3/4 cent per bushel, November soybeans are down 2 cents, December KC wheat is down 4 3/4 cents, December Chicago wheat is down 1 3/4 cents and MIAX December Minneapolis wheat is down 0.0350 cents. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 145.85 points. The U.S. Dollar Index is up 0.200 and October crude oil is up $0.87 per barrel. December gold is up $2.40 per ounce. At mid-morning, corn and soy are down slightly and wheat and bean oil are down more. Soybean meal is the only contract in the black today. There is very little news as traders bide their time ahead of the September crop report and a look at in-field yield potential.

Posted 08:32 -- December corn is down 2 3/4 cents per bushel, November soybeans are down 3 1/2 cents, December KC wheat is down 4 1/2 cents, December Chicago wheat is down 2 1/4 cents and MIAX December Minneapolis wheat is down 0.0150 cents. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 30.80 points. The U.S. Dollar Index is up 0.040 and October crude oil is up $0.95 per barrel. December gold is up $22.60 per ounce. Corn, wheat and soybean markets are all trending lower early Tuesday on a day without much fresh news. Wheat needs a higher close today to confirm the potential reverse signal after Monday's big run up.

Livestock

Posted 11:43 -- October live cattle are down $5.68 at $230.125, October feeder cattle are down $9.25 at $349.925, October lean hogs are up $0.93 at $96.075, December corn is down 2 1/4 cents per bushel and December soybean meal is up $2.30. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 108.82 points and NASDAQ is up 14.98 points. It's been a painstaking morning for the cattle complex as traders continue to liquidate their positions amid concern about the market's technical state and overextended position. No developments have surfaced yet for the fed cash cattle market.

Posted 08:50 -- October live cattle are down $1.40 at $234.50, September feeder cattle are down $2.22 at $358.85, October lean hogs are up $0.67 at $95.82. December corn is down 2 3/4 cents per bushel, November soybeans are down 3 1/2 cents, December KC wheat is down 4 1/2 cents, December Chicago wheat is down 2 1/4 cents and MIAX December Minneapolis wheat is down 0.0150 cents. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 30.80 points. The cattle complex is off to a mixed start as the cattle contracts are again being leery of trading too much higher, but the hog complex continues to inch higher. No trade has developed yet in the cash cattle complex and won't likely until Wednesday or later.
