U.S. exporters booked 2.88 million metric tons of corn for 2026-27 delivery in the week ended November 5, a marketing-year high. Mexico accounted for about 1.95 million tons, with Colombia, South Korea, Spain and Canada also buying, while wheat sales fell to a marketing-year low and soybean demand cooled.
Strong Mexican buying supports US corn export demand and near-term corn prices, while weaker wheat and soybean sales point to softer demand for those grains.
After 729 past bullish trade events, Corn moved a median +0.4% over 5 sessions (56% higher; middle half -1.1% to +1.8%), and +0.5% over 20.
