Corn Slips Lower into the Close

Barchart - Mon Apr 13, 4:20PM CDT

Corn futures failed to hold onto the Monday gains, closing with contracts steady to 1 ¼ cents lower and 5-6 cents off the highs. The CmdtyView national average Cash Corn price was down 1/2 cent at $4.02 3/4. Crude oil was up just $1.42 on the day, coming well off the highs, following the breakdown of US/Iran negotiations this weekend. Pressure came later in the session after President Trump stated Iran was wanting to make a deal.

Crop Progress data indicated the US corn crop was 5% planted as of Sunday. That was a 2-percentage point move on the week and compares to the 4% 5-year average pace.

Export Inspections data showed wheat at 1.782 MT (70.18 mbu) shipped in the week that ended on April 9. That was down 13.15% from last week, and 2.59% below the same week last year. Mexico was the top destination of 579,076 MT, with 205,930 MT to Japan and 202,404 MT to South Korea. Marketing year shipments have totaled 50.23 MMT (1.97 mbu), which is up 33.9% yr/yr.
