The USDA raised its 2023/24 US corn production estimate to a record 15.34 billion bushels and soybean ending stocks to 280 million bushels, both above expectations. Global corn ending stocks were also raised on larger supplies in the US and China.
Larger-than-expected US corn and soybean supplies are bearish for prices and point to ample feed grain availability for buyers.
After 1,102 past bearish report events, CORN moved a median -0.2% over 5 sessions (47% higher; middle half -1.8% to +1.3%), and +0.0% over 20.
After 788 past bearish report events, SOY moved a median -0.3% over 5 sessions (47% higher; middle half -2.0% to +1.5%), and -0.9% over 20.
