# Soybeans Popping Higher on Friday Following Export Announcements

> Soybeans rose 9 to 14 cents across most contracts on Friday after USDA reported a private export sale of 134,000 MT of soybeans to China and 120,000 MT to Vietnam, plus 100,000 MT to unknown destinations, all for 2026/27. Weekly export sales for the week of 11/5 totaled 1.155 MMT, a four-week low but well above the same week last year.
