USDA's Export Sales report showed private exporters sold 288,000 metric tons of corn to Mexico, with 95,100 tons for the 2024/25 marketing year and 192,900 tons for 2025/26. Exporters also sold 120,000 metric tons of soybeans to Pakistan for 2025/26 delivery.
Confirmed new sales to Mexico and Pakistan add to firm US export demand for corn and soybeans. The volumes are small relative to total US export flows, so the price impact is limited.
After 729 past bullish trade events, CORN moved a median +0.4% over 5 sessions (56% higher; middle half -1.1% to +1.8%), and +0.5% over 20.
After 696 past bullish trade events, SOY moved a median +0.3% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -1.3% to +1.9%), and +0.7% over 20.
