Market Commentary 8/14/2025

Big movements on the board today after the August WASDE report came out. Corn saw 2 million planted acres added to the mix and an increase in yield from 181 to 188.8. This led to an increase in new crop carryout over 2 billion bushels. Corn closed down 13 today and traded down as far as 16 lower. The acres added to corn were taken from beans, as soybeans lost planted acres and gained a bpa on yield. Beans, bean meal, and bean oil all traded higher. The Dollar is weaker and the Dow traded higher today. Energy futures are lower. New crop demand numbers were strengthened today as well, but not enough to offset the large increase in incoming supply. World stocks jumped by 11.33 billion bushels as well. We will see what the trade thinks of these numbers in the coming days once the dust settles. Have a good evening!
