Tuesday

Happy Tuesday for farmers as ridge weather talk, bullish reports from the USDA, and record short fund positions all hit the fan at the same time.  Switching to September futures for Ag, corn up 12 3/4 to 341 1/2.  Beans close 877, plus 18 3/4.  Even wheat gained 5 1/4 to 491 .3/4. This is an order flow market as we have been forecasting internally for the last week, so remember to trade accordingly.   Sept rice dropped 11 1/2 to 1222 1/2, as 550 bu rice is getting consumed.  Dow up 192 points, 25,689, and bonds slip 15 tics, 178.18.
