Wednesday

Dow wound up weak Wednesday as fears about global instability start to show some of the cracks in the system.  Dow off 372 at the end of the day, 34,887, and actually better than I expected, abet still soft.  Bonds sat on the sidelines, 165.02, off 2 tics.  Beans off 8 1/4 cents, 1353 1/4, with meal and oil soft.  Rice down 16 as well, 1328 1/2.  Wheat held 2 3/4 higher, 737 1/4, and corn stayed stable, 565, plus 1 1/2.
