Dry weather in Argentina remains the focus for grain traders as a new week gets underway. Storms fell apart in the country’s key central growing region over the weekend, and the forecast for the next two weeks remains dry helping soybean futures take aim at July highs. The rally in beans is boosting corn and wheat, which continued its rebound on forecasts for mostly dry weather over the southwest Plains. Outside markets also appear to be on a roll with stocks extending gains around the world today.
