The wheat speculator in Chicago to slowly change the mind and reduce the net long positions in the reporting week to the 06.01.2015 against the previous week to 6.339 long positions now 14.142 net long positions. The courses in Paris and Chicago gave way during the same period, thus their dominance seems at least for the time being stopped.
The world race with "roller coaster moves" and the (agricultural) commodity markets. An extremely low crude oil price, a weak euro and negative interest rates include this indicator of the current situation. Many States are currently politically unstable. Who can therefore assume that tomorrow everything "in the slot" is? Global markets and regional policy deal seemingly bad with each other and will bring some surprise with it. What is it, it has helped the European price of wheat so far "on the jumps", the euro decline by about 15% and also the critical situation to the Ukraine helped significantly upward the price of wheat. US wheat exports lose competitiveness, stops the goods in warehouses. Due to the low oil price broke the Ethanolabsatz, also the lush existing U.S. corn is little paragraph (the paragraph hopes rest in addition to China increased in Cuba! and Mexico). As a harbinger of the over-supply, the US farmer order significantly less corn, so that it can be a smaller maize crop production and a lower production for the upcoming crop. In any case, it affects the rates, as the current location of supply currently rather in 2015/16 expected lower grain supply. The Russian export restrictions also in recent times in the foreground and the weakness of the euro get notable headwinds but by the low oil price.
Also the corn speculators "rowing" gently back. The net-long positions to 13.069 positions on 226.635 now still net long positions fell in the last week of the report to the 06.01.2015. The rise in Chicago was also slowed and prices are likely to remain when now urges the corn from the United States and South America in the market still under pressure.
