USDA reported daily flash sales by private exporters for the 2026/27 marketing year. The sales included 315,000 metric tons of corn for Mexico, 136,000 metric tons of corn for South Korea, and 134,000 metric tons of soybeans for unknown destinations.
Flash sales add to firm export demand for corn and soybeans, and the unknown soybean destination could indicate Chinese buying, which would support soybean prices if confirmed.
After 1,040 past bullish report events, CORN moved a median +0.5% over 5 sessions (62% higher; middle half -0.9% to +2.0%), and +0.8% over 20.
After 747 past bullish report events, SOY moved a median +0.3% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -1.4% to +2.1%), and +0.8% over 20.
