Argentina's trade flows have slowed as exporters and importers hold back amid fears of a devaluation under tight capital controls. Exports have dipped since May and the trade surplus fell to about $600 million in September and October from above $1.4 billion earlier.
Grain and oilseed farmers holding back sales reduce near-term export supply from Argentina, which tends to support world soymeal, soyoil and corn prices.
After 342 past bullish trade events, Soybean Meal moved a median +0.1% over 5 sessions (51% higher; middle half -1.1% to +2.6%), and +0.6% over 20.
