    8/12/2008 08-12-2008 7:50 AM Good morning, this is Alan Kluis with your opening Kluis News daily grain comments for Tuesday August 12. In the overnight markets prices were mixed on light volume Dec. Corn was up ¾ at $5.17 ¾ , November Soybean futures last trade down 6 at $11.90 and Dec. CBT wheat down 3 at $8.15. Now for a look at the USDA Reports. The reports are considered slightly negative for corn, positive for soybeans and neutral for wheat my early opening calls Corn 5-8 lower, soybeans 5-10 higher and wheat mixed. . The trade was looking for a corn yield of 152.6 and a total crop right at 12 billion bushels. The USDA showed a yield of 155 bpa and a total crop of 12.288 Billion Bu. The average trade estimate for Soybeans the average trade guess for yield is 41.7 BPA which would project a total crop of 3 Billion bushels. The USDA showed soybean yield of 40.5 BPA for a total crop of 2.973 Bil. Bu. With the larger crop the 2008 – 2009 corn ending stocks is now projected at 1.133 Billion Bushels vs the trade estimate of 1.004 Billion bushels. The soybean ending stocks came in at 135 million bushels 6 million below the trade estimate The wheat crop was virtually unchanged at 2.462 Billion bushels. The corn number for corn is not as negative as it appears. The usage is really projected to jump now with these lower prices. I would not rule out corn closing higher today. The old saying is that it takes a negative report to put a bottom in and that may occur today. If you did not have all of these USDA reports the change in the weather forecasts that pulls some rain out of the extended models and brings in some real heat would be viewed as bullish for prices especially soybeans. In the outside markets crude oil is down 31 at $114.35 per barrel, the US dollar is down 17 and the DOW futures are down 17 In the European grain markets corn futures are down 2 at $6.57 per bushel, and wheat futures are down 13 at $7.52 Check back this afternoon after 4:00 for the next weather and market update.
