Oat futures rallied nearly $1 during the third quarter and pushed past $4 resistance for the first time in two years. The move followed a roughly 20% drop in Canadian oat production, while U.S. ending stocks remain historically tight.
Canada supplies most of the oats the U.S. imports, so a smaller Canadian crop tightens North American supply and supports oat feed prices. Tight U.S. stocks suggest the firmer price trend could persist.
After 68 past bullish weather events, Oats moved a median -0.8% over 5 sessions (47% higher; middle half -3.6% to +3.9%), and -0.3% over 20.
