# Corn Facing Midday Monday Pressure

> U.S. corn futures were lower at midday, despite USDA reporting a 110,000-tonne private export sale to Mexico for the 2026/27 marketing year. Weekly export shipments were 39% below the year-earlier level, while 2026/27 shipments to date were down 15.9%; traders were also positioning ahead of USDA crop and stocks reports, and estimates cited a smaller Ukrainian crop.

## Why it matters

Slower U.S. export shipments and bearish trader positioning weigh on corn, while the Mexico sale and possible production cuts could provide support. USDA’s upcoming estimates and the smaller Ukraine crop add uncertainty to export competition and feed-grain availability.
