Wheat futures fell as much as 2.4% to their lowest intraday level since June 30 before trimming losses. Traders cited planned US-led talks with Russian and Ukrainian delegations in Abu Dhabi and the possibility of progress toward easing Black Sea export disruptions.
Expectations that talks could restore grain flows from two major wheat suppliers increase the prospect of exportable supply, pressuring wheat prices. The conflict’s damage to ports and disrupted shipments remain an offsetting risk.
After 80 past bearish geopolitics events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median -0.4% over 5 sessions (44% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.9%), and -0.5% over 20.
