Posted 19:08 Sunday -- December corn is up 2 1/4 cents and November soybeans are up 5 1/2 cents. December KC wheat is up 14 cents, December Chicago wheat is up 13 1/2 cents, and December MIAX Minneapolis wheat is up 11 cents. October crude oil is up $0.97 and Dow Jones futures are down 271 points. The U.S. Dollar Index is down 0.35 and December gold is down $11.50. Row crop futures are firm on the open following the long weekend. Optimism for peace talks in the Black Sea had pressured wheat prices through last week, with traders especially cautious on news that U.S. negotiators would be heading to the region over the weekend. There have been few details emerging from those meetings but thus far it appears that no breakthroughs were achieved and the situation remains largely unchanged. This should continue to keep a layer of support beneath current market prices. Harvest is now just around the corner in the U.S., which remains the primary bearish argument for the market as upside potential may be limited for the time being by hedging pressure and speculator profit taking, the latter which already currently hold historically large length in row crop futures.
