Soybeans take the lead in pulling markets lower today as the week ends on a down note. USDA announced another soybean purchase from unknown destinations with 6.95 million bushels of 2013 beans sold and 7.165 million bushels of 2014 crop moved. Wheat has been unable to pick up anything out of the very cold temperatures in the Plains and an ice storm in the Delta and southern Midwest that could damage winter wheat crops.
