February 20, 2019

Bearish technical traders had a field day Tuesday, returning from the holiday weekend to punish corn, soybeans and wheat on their charts. Futures are trying to stem the tide of that selling this morning, with mixed results so far as markets wait for potentially big news to break over the next couple of days. In addition to high level trade talks with China USDA will update forecasts for 2019 crops at its annual outlook conference.
