Grain Market Insight
Morning Grain Comments 7-31-2026 – The grain markets opened mixed last evening with wheat up a bit while corn and soybeans opened fractionally lower but all of the grains traded both sides of Thursday's closes. Wheat turned lower, hitting it's session low after 7 this morning being double digits lower. Soybeans recovered late in the session to end a little higher. The StoneX Quick Editorial (QE) this morning stated, “soybean oil surprisingly dominated trade volume overnight on its way towards challenging July lows, while corn hit its own two-week bottom and broke through technical support-all this despite higher, range-bound crude oil overnight. Rains are aiding crops across the heart of Midwest this morning though amounts look a bit disappointing for most this far…” In world grain trade news, Tunisia purchased 2.8 million bushels of optional origin soft wheat and 2.2 million bushels of optional origin feed barley. At the end of the night session at 7:45 this morning Kansas City September wheat was 8.5 cents lower, Chicago September corn was 2.75 cents lower, and Chicago November soybeans were 2.25 cents higher. Have a wonderful day and weekend.
Morning Grain Comments 7-30-2026 – The grains all started the night session fractionally lower then moved lower early in the session before wheat started to rally to double digits higher with corn and soybeans following. More comments will be written as the session progresses toward the end of the session. The reason for the wheat rally was due to reported attacks on ships in the Black Sea region between Russia and Ukraine but the markets have calmed down since the original report. The StoneX Quick Editorial (QE) this morning stated, “the grains were on track for another losing session last night before Ukraine reported "significant damage" from a drone attack on a major Russian Kerch Strait grain export terminal. Ukraine also attacked a sunflower oil facility and a handful of Russian tankers, as fighting in the Black Sea region continues to escalate. Action also continue in the Middle East as Saudi Arabia joined the U.S in striking iran: WTI crude oil has flipped the low side this morning despite renewed action there. On the fundamental side, for what it is worth, conditions remain hot and dry here in the Midwest but much needed rains are on tap across the belt over the coming days…” In world grain trade news, MFIG in Taiwan purchased 2,6 million bushels of corn from Brazil and Tunisia has tendered for up to 2.7 million bushels of soft wheat. The export sales report this morning at 7:30 showed 14.3 mb of old crop corn and a very nice 41.8 mb of new crop corn sales. The sales report also showed 11.1 mb old crop soybean sales and 49 mb new crop soybean sales. There were also 10.5 mb wheat sales and 300,000 bushels of milo sales. Good new crop sales for both corn and soybeans. At the end of the night session at 7:45 this morning Kansas City September wheat was 20.75 cents higher, Chicago September corn was 1.5 cents higher, and Chicago November soybeans were 1.25 cents higher. Have a wonderful day.
