Farmers in the US are harvesting what is likely the country's third-largest corn crop ever after a dry spring threatened the crop. The bumper harvest will strain storage capacity and push down prices for the world's most traded feed grain.

After 357 past bearish weather events, Corn moved a median -0.3% over 5 sessions (44% higher; middle half -2.2% to +1.3%), and -0.5% over 20.
