Grain Futures--- The grain market sold off sharply in the new crop grains with November soybeans down $.24 at 12.51 a bushel hitting new 4 week lows as outstanding weather in the Midwest is pressuring prices with the USDA crop report coming out stating that this is the 3rd highest acreage in history at 76.1 million acres up 1% from last year and as I’ve been recommending in many previous blogs to continue to sell the soybeans I do believe prices are headed sharply lower from these levels. Soybean prices in the November contract are trading below their 20 and 100 day moving average settling right at session lows this Friday afternoon in Chicago and I do believe you will see further weakness next week as generally the Fourth of July weekend is the top in the grain market. July soybeans hit a new contract high of 15.74 finishing up about $.16 as the spread between old crop and new crop hit a new high today as supplies are very small in the July contract and could be very large in the November contract in a couple of months.

Grain Futures-- The grain market was mixed this week as soybean prices in the November contract settled right near session lows finishing down $.12 at 12.73 and as I’ve written about in many previous blogs I am very bearish the grain sector & I think prices are way over priced with solid weather here in the United States which should produce a record crop along with a very pessimistic commodity market as interest rates are starting to move to the upside very quickly pushing commodity prices sharply lower as well as the S&P 500 which was in a terrific bull market for some quite time but prices are headed lower in my opinion. Corn futures bucked the trend this week settling last Friday at 5.33 up about $.22 trading above their 20 and 100 day moving average right near 4 month highs, however I have been wrong on this trade but I remain extremely bearish corn prices and I think one of these days to come in corn could go limit down across the board as a 2 billion carryover is only 3 months away in my opinion. Wheat futures continued a 14 week consolidation down $.03 with absolutely no trend in sight and I’m waiting for a break out just like what happened in the live cattle contract to the upside as long consolidations in my opinion could be a terrific buy or sell because the trend is generally very powerful after at least a 12 week breakout.

Grain Futures--- Grain Futures--- The grain market saw extreme volatility this week especially in the July soybeans which were up over $.50 yesterday hitting a high of 15.46 then reversing and settling unchanged settling today at 14.76 a bushel down 23 cents and has sold off 75 cents in 2 days and that tells me that there’s a possibility that this could be short term high. The November soybeans which I have talked about in previous blogs stating if prices are able to break above 12.40 a bushel hitting a 6 week high continuing its bullish trend I would advise traders to buy soybeans above that level risking $12 stop which is around $400 per mini contract as the trend continues to move higher. The U.S dollar today was slightly lower not impacting many of the commodities today except for a selected few with a really wishy-washy trend and I still think July soybeans are headed higher despite the fact of the tremendous selloff happening in the last 2 days & I think that was just profit taking and there are very few supplies to be sold and that’s the reason prices are headed higher in my opinion.

Precious Metal Futures--- The precious metals fell out of bed this week especially gold which finished down for the 6th consecutive day trading far below its 100 day moving average all due to the fact that the U.S dollar hit another contract high today trading up nearly 70 points again today as investors are fleeing out of gold and taking that money and placing it in the U.S dollar and the S&P 500 which is hitting another record high again today. Gold futures for the June contract settled last Friday at 1,436 finishing down about $70 for the week trading at 1,362 hitting a 2 year low with a possible retest of 1,321 which was hit on April 16th of this year. Investors see no reason to own gold at this point in time when you can buy the stock market which seems to go up every single day, however the real story is large hedge funds including George Soros which have been liquidating their gold positions in recent weeks and that is also putting pressure as investors are taking money out of the ETF gold market.
