Grain Market Insight
Afternoon Grain Comments 5-7-2026 – The grain markets ended the day lower again as wheat selling was back again today but did not rally late like it did yesterday. We had the export sales report this morning and we have the WASDE scheduled for Tuesday with the weekend reports, export inspections Monday and the crop progress reports between but we continue to watch the weather and hope that something gets settled with Iran, then we would have to find something else to move the markets. We will see where we go to end the week. At the close today cash wheat was 20 cents lower, corn and milo were a penny lower, and soybeans ended the day 3 cents lower. Have a great evening.
Morning Grain Comments 5-7-2026 – The grains opened the night session steady to better last evening before selling set in with July KC wheat trading near 12 cents lower at one point in the session until the last half hour of the session when it moved lower. The StoneX Quick Editorial (QE) this morning stated, “corn led overnight trade volume as it continued to decline from move highs; money is exiting the commodity sector as WTI crude oil weakens below $100/bbl as the U.S. and Iran supposedly “close in” on a deal…” The export sales report this morning showed 53.6 million bushels of old crop corn sales and 4.8 million new crop corn sales with both of those coming in within the range of the pre-report trade estimates. Total soybean sales in the report were 5.4 million bushels which were a little lower than anticipated. There were 2.9 million bushels of old crop wheat sales (not a negative number) and 6.9 million bushels of new crop sales so not great but both were positive. There were no milo sales in the report this week. After the export sales report soybeans dropped a couple of cents while wheat and corn were steady. In world grain trade news, Algeria purchased approximately 15.4 million bushels of milling wheat yesterday with most of it likely to come from the Black Sea region, MFG in South Korea purchased 50,000 tonnes of soybean meal in their tender yesterday, and FLC in South Korea purchased 5.2 million bushels of optional origin corn. At the end of the night session at 7:45 this morning, July Kansas City wheat was 13.75 cents lower, Chicago July corn was down 5.5 cents, and Chicago July soybeans were 9.25 cents lower. Have a wonderful day.
