In the report week ending Oct. 14, 2014, the net short positions when the speculators of the Chicago wheat have reduced to 7.907 on 60.063 NET short positions. For the time being stopped the decline of recent months. On this development, the current USDA figures regarding the end wheat stocks in the marketing year are likely to have participated in 2014/15. The October estimate had decreased the closing inventories by 3 million tonnes compared with the last month for Saeed now 193 million tonnes. But looking at the last few years, so the supply is total increased and relatively comfortable, so why not a sustainable price pressure is expected. The courses in Paris and Chicago differ only 10 euro / t, it no longer gave such a small difference since a year.
Corn speculators in Chicago have increased the net long positions even 15.575 on now 88.668 net long positions. It was again stopped the decline, even a rate rise. The reasons for this likely the increase of 2 million tons corn end stocks at the USDA's October estimate have been but less, but the slow progress of the crop in the United States. In the meantime the weather has improved but again and the harvest goes on quickly. The result of the courses give way again. Just like when the wheat there is currently no significant impulses for sustainable rate changes in maize. What moves the courses, are only little sustainable weather messages and "normal" movements on the world capital markets.
