Agricultural markets traded lower after giving back part of the previous session’s rally, which had followed lower-than-expected U.S. corn and soybean production estimates. The report said U.S. harvest was nearing completion, South American weather was favorable for planting and crop development, and the U.S. dollar had strengthened to a one-month high after hotter-than-expected inflation data.
The lower U.S. production outlook supports corn and soybean prices, but favorable South American crop conditions and a stronger dollar are counterweights that can limit export competitiveness and prices. The pullback was described as a reversal of recent gains rather than a new supply shock.
