Grain Market Insight
Morning Grain Comments 4-9-2026 – The grains all had a two-sided night session but settled into the green through the last half of the session with wheat leading the way. The StoneX Quick Editorial (QE) this morning stated, “corn led fairly slow overnight volume with a recovery from yesterday’s one-plus month low, but few changes are expected today and U.S. and global supplies remain hefty; 2026 U.S. plantings are seen strong following a record 2025 crop, with S.A. corn thriving in the midst of those two also…” The April WASDE scheduled for release this morning at 11:00 so we will see if that moves the markets later. The export sales report this morning showed total corn sales of 54 million bushels, old crop soybean sales of 10.9 million bushels, wheat sales of 9.3 million bushels, and milo sales of 4.5 million bushels. Overall, the export sales were decent, mostly within the range of the pre-report trade estimates with soybeans being the most disappointing but all of the grains improved in the last 15 minutes of the session. In world grain trade news, buyers in South Korea purchased another 8 million bushels of corn yesterday with NOFI, MFG, and Cargill Agri Purina being the buyers along with 2.2 million bushels of feed wheat and flour millers purchased 3.3 million bushels of milling wheat from the U.S. I read a comment this morning “perception is reality to the markets” which is good to remember. We may not agree with traders perception but this is a good comment to remember when the markets seem to be irrational. At the end of the night session at 7:45 this morning, May Kansas City wheat was 9.75 cents higher, Chicago May corn was up 2.75 cents, and Chicago May soybeans were 5 cents higher. Have a wonderful day.
Afternoon Grain Comments 4-8-2026 – The grains ended the day mixed with wheat lower due in part to the favorable weather forecast and some easing of the geopolitical strain in the world as the wheat market continues to look well supplied at this point. The corn market was mostly about the ceasefire and looking forward to the export sales report and the April WASDE tomorrow morning. The ethanol report this morning showed increased production to 1.116 million barrels per day with stocks increasing by 62,000 barrels. The soybean market was under the influence of the crude oil market that is influencing the bean oil futures but managed to post a gain for the day. At the close today cash wheat ended the day 13 cents lower, corn and milo were down 2 cents, and soybeans ended the day 4 cents higher. Have a great evening.
