# Market Snapshot | Iffy U.S. weather sparks wheat rally - Pro Farmer

> Corn futures rose 3 to 4 cents midmorning on spillover from a rallying wheat market. Brazilian domestic corn prices reached their highest since April 2022 and are up about 24% this year, with tight stocks ahead of the safrinha harvest. Soymeal fell about $1.50 while soyoil firmed, and the market awaited the NOPA crush report.

## Why it matters

Tight Brazilian corn stocks and high domestic prices support export competitiveness for US corn and lift global feed grain prices. Weaker soymeal reflects expectations of a weak crush report, while firmer soyoil points to a shift in crush margins.
