The July WASDE cut USDA's 2019/20 world wheat ending stocks by 7.88 million tonnes to 286.46 million tonnes, a steeper cut than analysts expected. Wheat futures rallied on the report, though the stocks figure remains a record and global consumption was revised lower.
A larger-than-expected stocks cut signals tighter wheat supply and supports prices, though record carryout limits the upside for feed buyers.
