markets 11/9 usda production report

The USDA numbers appear bullish this morning.

Crop Production:
  • Beans 3.204 bln. bu. (avg. est. 3.24 bln. bu.)
  • Corn 10.745 bln. bu. (avg. est. 10.838 bln. bu.)
Carryout:
  • Beans .565 bln. bu. (avg. est. .583 bln. bu.)
  • Corn .935 bln. bu. (avg. est. .912 bln. bu.)

The lower than expected production on corn should be enough to ignite a frenzy of buying with beans and wheat bidding up prices in acreage competition.

Gold has recovered somewhat from its down move on Wednesday, but it still appears weak overall.
