Consumers are finding oat products harder to buy as a shortage has pushed up grain prices. The shortage follows a severe drought in North American oat-growing regions last year that cut the harvest below demand.
A smaller drought-hit harvest outpaced by demand keeps oat supplies tight and prices elevated for buyers.
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.
