Outside markets are steady to higher this morning but most of the grain market is having none of that good cheer. Futures are seeing some follow-through selling on the heels of Thursday’s bearish USDA reports that are breaking some key support levels followed by traders on price charts. Forecasts for huge South American corn and soybean crops have the grain market back on its heels. Wall Street is in a more bullish mode as investors expect a friendly jobs report this morning out of the U.S. Labor Department. Crude oil is also trying to firm after breaking below $50 this week.
