A coalition of 67 food and agriculture associations and companies sent a letter to Congress urging ratification of the USMCA trade agreement. They cited a U.S. International Trade Commission analysis projecting a $68.2 billion GDP increase and $2.2 billion in added agricultural and food exports.

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.
After 696 past bullish trade events, Soybeans moved a median +0.3% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -1.3% to +1.9%), and +0.7% over 20.
