USDA released its July WASDE on July 11, based on the June 28 Acreage report. It raised projected 2019-20 corn production by 195 million bushels and increased ending stocks by 335 million bushels to about 2 billion bushels.
Feed and residual use was raised by 25 million bushels, and USDA said silking was behind average.
Higher corn production and stocks add bearish pressure to corn and feed grain prices, with the crop's late pollination adding some weather risk.
After 1,102 past bearish report events, Corn moved a median -0.2% over 5 sessions (47% higher; middle half -1.8% to +1.3%), and +0.0% over 20.
