Market Commentary 05/26/2023

Grain markets are up a good handle on fund short covering and de-risking ahead of this long weekend. The Midwest is warmer and dryer than normal with little participation expected across the corn belt in the 10-day forecast. Tuesday brings a new week of trading along with a crop condition report after the close. Grain markets officially open back up for trading at 7pm on Monday though I doubt any big moves come until Tuesday morning. Nearby resistance for December corn is 5.42 - 5.50. Just about all commodities bar livestock ended the day in the green going into the holiday weekend, stocks continued higher as well. The Fed has another meeting in mid-June where they will likely raise interest rates. Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JP Morgan things interest rates are going to 6-7% which I agree with. So far, the economy has remained resilient, and it may take years of high interest rates to reign in inflation. 

Have a great holiday weekend everyone and start giving those new crop price/profitability targets some thought.
