GRAINS
Prices were narrowly mixed in overnight trading. In corn and beans, focus will now turn more to demand instead of supply. Corn and bean bulls need some fresh bullish fundamental inputs. Wheat bulls continue strong amid strong worldwide demand and still no solid technical clues that a near-term top is close at hand.
