South American new-crop soybean supplies are starting their seasonal rise, taking business from U.S. sellers. China's U.S. share of imports fell to 88% last month, and it cancelled a cargo as crush margins turned negative.
Seasonal South American supply and Chinese diversification and cancellations pressure U.S. soybean export demand and prices, while crush margin weakness signals softer soymeal and oil demand.
