# Why aren't UK wheat futures following US trends? Grain Market Daily | AHDB

> Wheat complex sentiment was negative in late October on improving Canadian harvest progress and weak weekly US export sales of 262,400 tonnes. Australia's wheat estimate of 15.5 million tonnes is well below the USDA's 18 million, and a 600,000 tonne Algerian purchase from France was noted.
