Tuesday

Tuesday trade hit with better than expected crop conditions in corn and beans, and computers willing to press the issue.  Corn drops a nickel, 320, while beans get hit for 11 cents, 887 3/4.  Meal gave up 3 and a half bucks as well.  Rice 10 lot seller back and pressing that market down 21 1/2 to 1142 1/2.  He does not appear to be done.  Wheat off 4 1/4 to 523 1/2 but that is the computer yo-yo market, so no read at all off that movement.  Dow weakens 187 points, 26,297 and bonds gain 25 tics to  close 181.14.
