Thursday

Nothing really exciting in exports to start Thursday trade but we got a nice 260K bean flash and helped push us 14 1/4 better by the close, 1074 1/2.  Corn could only muster a 2 1/4 cent gain, 406 but I think that was held down by the weak wheat market, 537 3/4, off 9 1/4.  It's been hard for the wheat bulls and the crop tour isn't helping.   Rice bull is pushing out more shorts, 1501, up another 22.  Have to think about new crop pricing pretty soon.  Dow rocked higher but faded to 40,192, still 82 better but nearly 500 off the highs while bonds picked up 19 tics, 118.20.
