Tuesday

Tuesday trade really didn't have much to guide us concerning how the world is going to react to the recent war escalations and make no mistake, this is going to escalate.  Dow held for a third day of gains, 33,936, up 135 points.  Bonds had nothing extra, 112.02, plus a tic.  Wheat lost 14 1/4 to 558 1/2 and I would think wheat would be setting a floor, but it sure doesn't act like it.  Corn lost 2 3/4 to 485 1/2.  Beans gained 7 1/4 cents, 1271 1/2 and rice picked up 4 1/2 in late bids, 1587.
