Russian wheat export prices rose last week to about $189 per tonne FOB on firm global prices and strong buyer demand. Egypt bought 175,000 tons of Russian wheat in a tender, and the agriculture ministry raised its 2017 harvest forecast to 116-117 million tonnes.
Strong import demand and rising Black Sea offers lift world wheat prices, though a larger Russian crop caps the rally over time.
After 431 past bullish trade events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.3% to +2.1%), and +0.5% over 20.
