U.S. corn export sales for 2026/27 surged to 113.4 million bushels for the week ending Nov. 5, the largest weekly total of the marketing year and a record for that comparable week since 1997/98.
Buying came from Mexico, China, Vietnam and unknown destinations, and cash cattle buying began to pick up.
Record-pace export demand tightens U.S. corn supplies and supports prices, while firmer cash cattle buying may steady live cattle values.
After 737 past bullish trade events, Corn moved a median +0.4% over 5 sessions (57% higher; middle half -1.1% to +1.7%), and +0.5% over 20.
