The Biden administration is reportedly moving to escalate a trade dispute with Mexico over GM corn imports. Mexico buys about $5 billion of US GM corn annually, mostly for livestock feed.
Escalation raises the risk of tariffs or restricted access to a major export market for US corn, a bearish risk for corn and feed-grain prices.
After 683 past bearish trade events, Corn moved a median -0.2% over 5 sessions (47% higher; middle half -1.7% to +1.6%), and +0.3% over 20.
