Grain Futures--- The grain market continues their bearish trend with soybeans higher by $.15 in early trade only to selloff & make new contract lows at 11.81 finishing right near session lows and as I’ve been instructing traders or investors for quite some time I do believe prices are headed substantially lower in the next 2 weeks due to the fact that the weather is outstanding especially if we can get some warmer weather which should really propel the crop even more. Corn futures continue to move lower once again finishing down $.03 in the December contract at 4.63 a bushel also at new contract lows as I’m hearing from many farmers around the country & they are expecting over 200 bushels an acre which could produce a record crop this fall.

Grain Futures-- The grain market closed higher today with November soybeans up 25 cents to finish on the highs of the trading session at 13.30 a bushel all due to a sharply weaker U.S dollar this week with planting problems as well. Corn futures for the December contract were higher by 11 cents currently trading at 5.59 a bushel after filling the gap at 5.40 yesterday which I stated I thought prices would come back down and fill that important price level but corn still remains choppy. I am bearish the new crop soybeans & corn because I do think this weather is good for crop conditions in the long run with the weather improving in the Midwest with warmer temperatures and no rain in the forecast for several days. What a difference a year makes as last year we were basically 95° almost every single day while this year is extremely wet and cold which could push prices lower in my opinion.

Precious Metal Futures--- The precious metals sold off this Friday afternoon with gold in the August contract continuing its choppy trade down $20 an ounce at 1,392 still stuck in a two-week sideways channel and as I’ve stated in previous blogs even after yesterday’s $20 up move I still remain bearish gold & I don’t understand any reason to be owning gold at this point in time and I do think a possible retest of 1,320 is in the cards in the next couple of weeks. Silver futures have been in a tight sideways channel down about $.50 at 22.21 still looking bearish in my opinion as the commodity markets as a whole are turning negative once again. The U.S dollar today was up about 45 points putting pressure on many commodities, however the dollar had 2 straight down days so today was considered profit taking but I still believe the U.S dollar is headed higher against the foreign currencies which will put pressure on the commodity markets in short term.
