Wheat futures rebounded, with Euronext’s December contract closing above EUR 230 per tonne and Chicago wheat posting a second consecutive daily gain. The article cites stalled Russia-Ukraine-US discussions on safe Black Sea shipping, stronger French demand, and support from a bullish US corn outlook, while noting that global wheat fundamentals remain comfortable.
Uncertainty over Black Sea shipping keeps a risk premium in wheat, while stronger demand and spillover from corn provide additional support. Ample global wheat supplies limit the upside, so the rebound may remain restrained unless shipping risks intensify.
After 361 past bullish geopolitics events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median +0.7% over 5 sessions (58% higher; middle half -1.4% to +3.7%), and +1.3% over 20.
