## Linked price moves

| Commodity | Date | Window | Change % | z-score | Why linked |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| CORN | 2018-03-12 | 1 | +2.6% | 7.7 | The March WASDE cut US corn ending stocks sharply (-9.6%) on higher exports, a bullish supply/demand surprise that likely fed continued buying, though it was released two trading days before the 2018-03-12 move, so the direct link is only partial. |
