CBOT wheat is down 4¼¢. KC wheat is up slightly. Minneapolis wheat is down less than a penny.
“Grain and oilseed futures were mostly quiet overnight ahead of what is likely to be a quiet session today, with volume low and many traders looking ahead to a three-day New Year’s holiday weekend,” says The Brock Report. “Favorable South American weather and lack of fresh export sales hang over the market.”
