Wednesday

Dow holds Tuesday gains and adds another 163 points Wednesday, 35,050.  Bonds give back 1/2 the pop, 114.08, off a point and 6 tics.  Beans traded near $14 but faded to 1385, off 4 3/4.  Corn down 7 1/2 to 470 3/4 and wheat drops 11 1/2 to 560 1/2.  Not the kind of action you want to see on the heels of the Xi visit and really what fanfare is left in that tank?  Rice bull still at it, 1694, up 16 1/2 and attracting pricing, but remember we are in silly season.
