Soybeans tried to lead the market higher overnight with follow-through buying noted after Friday’s bullish USDA acreage estimate and resumption of trade talks with China. Gains are starting to ebb, however, as traders mull an updated July forecast that calls for below average temperatures and above average precipitation for much of the growing region. Most year’s that forecast would be good for yields, but more of the same may not be what crops lagging development need right now.
