Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue said after two days of meetings with Mexican Agriculture Secretary Jose Calzada Rovirosa that Mexico has not signaled serious intent to shift corn and other farm imports away from the U.S. Mexico is the third-largest U.S. farm export market, forecast at $18.5 billion this year.
Reassurance that Mexico will keep buying U.S. corn and soybeans supports export demand and limits downside risk tied to NAFTA anxiety, though talks remain unresolved.
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 250 past neutral trade events, Soybeans moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.6%), and -0.2% over 20.
