๐ซ China showed up big in today's export sales report.
USDA: 2.18 million tonnes of net soybean sales to China for the week ended Oct. 15. Total U.S. sales hit 2.84 million, up from about 575,000 the week before.
Beans? Up about a nickel this morning. A modest reaction to a big number.
Why? Harvest is still filling the pipeline, and the total landed near the top of the 1.1โ3 million-tonne range traders expected. Big, but not a surprise.
Next test: does the buying continue, and do the sales actually ship?
Which grain has the most crowded fund long right now?
Not corn โ funds have cut 44% of that net long in four weeks.
It's soybeans. Still 7th largest of the past 52 weeks.
