At mid-morning, markets have weakened with corn and beans leading the way as harvest advances in the southern belt. Wheat is also lower with the exception of MIAX. Crude oil is correcting and down $4 per barrel and with it bean oil has turned lower.

Soybeans and products are higher again while corn is little changed and wheat is firmer in quiet early trade. For the entire week we have not seen new China soy purchases with the Trump-Xi meeting at the White House in just 8 days.

Livestock

Posted 08:40 -- December live cattle are down $1.80 at $223.35, October feeder cattle are down $4.00 at $333.85, October lean hogs are down $0.53 at $79.075, December corn is down 1/2 cent per bushel and December soybean meal is up $2.20. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is down 328.09 points and the NASDAQ is down 204.84 points. The livestock complex continues to trade lower as traders need more fundamental support before they'll comfortably advance the contracts again. Still no cash cattle trade has developed.
