Soybeans are posting more gains during the overnight session, but the rest of the screen in red as wheat and corn pull back. Light rain over Texas encourages a little profit taking in wheat, though most hard red winter wheat fields could see additional stress over the next week from warm, dry weather. Corn continues to come under pressure from USDA’s large acreage estimate. Outside markets are cautious, with modest selling noted ahead of this morning’s employment report for March, due out at 7:30 a.m. CDT.
