Corn and bean futures have proved to be the 'big swingers' as of late. Wheat gets caught in the row crop's gravitational pull and then succumbs to 'Da Funds' flavor of the day. Charts and 'tea leaves' favor a rally.  Bottom line: 'fundamental' control has been compromised. Global economic arrhythmia has some nations, in or heading toward, political disruption. The world's food/energy gap is widening and inflationary forces are singeing/reshaping traditional business/trading practices.  

The weekly export sales report showed SWW's column routinely dented by Japan, Korea and the UAE.  Local bidders chant a familiar sounding lineup with only minor activity reported. Should be a thin market today as many players have already hit the road. The country seems well prepared for the 'silly season' to commence.  As we celebrate our nation's Independence Day, it's a good time to reflect on the strengths/ideals needed to keep our democracy strong. Have a great holiday weekend wherever you are.
