Chinese buyers are inquiring about US corn and sorghum after purchasing the largest volume in almost seven years less than a week earlier. Crashing US prices have made the yellow grain used in feed and biofuel more attractive, while Chinese domestic demand is seen remaining strong.
Renewed Chinese interest in cheap US corn could firm export demand and support US corn values from low levels.
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.
