Friday

Corn the feature Friday gaining another nickel, 440 and the March/July spread into 8 cents, trying to pull inventory forward.  Bean spreads doing the same while Jan soy closed the week unchanged, 993 3/4.  Wheat off a penny, 557 1/4 and the funds continue to add to a big, short position.  Rice off 7 in a back-and-forth trade as well but the commercial seems to be letting the fund short out without too much more punishment.  We need to see more river action in the rice.  Dow off 161 points, 44,706 and bonds pick up 9 tics, 120.05.
