Wednesday

Pre-thanksgiving trade Wednesday mostly firm With Corn up 6 1/2 to 663 1/4 and wheat gaining a couple cents, 793 1/2.  Beans picked up 6 1/4 to close 1436 and rice gained 6 1/2 with the fund system still pushing, 1801.  Rice open interest continues to grow and we added 184 Sept to the open interest in a day, more than doubling the total and getting to a price were we need to pay attention.  Dow up 85 points, 34,211 and bonds gained a full point, 127.20.  Lofty bond pricing to me.
