Rebound: August Live Cattle

John LunneyGeneral Commentary

August Live Cattle      The cattle market made an early low at 107.925 and snapped back in impressive fashion to post high of 110.325 before settling just off upper extreme at 110.050. I’d be expecting further modest upside action from here. Any choppy advance should find resistance around 111 to 111.500. If it play out like this I’d would …

Slippy? Focus September Soybeans

John LunneyGeneral Commentary

September Soybeans      Beans can’t get anything going on the upside as they fail to climb above the 935 level spoke of in yesterday’s posting. Contract steadily slides lower throughout session to targeted first tier support target at +/- 920 as they hold up just above at 920.2 to settle at 921.6. Hard to make a case for this …

Ag Commentary

John WalshGrains

The markets were lower today after a weekend of fairly reasonable rains. The western belt is now receiving a better flow of moisture and this is expected to continue over the next 10 day period. The crop condition ratings showed a 1 % decline week on week. This may offer a small bounce overnight and on Tuesday. The long term …

Cattle Call: August Live Cattle

John LunneyGeneral Commentary

August Live Cattle      It appears that we are in the late stages of an a-b-c non-impulsive correction commencing from the highs at roughly 128. Any choppy advance will target +/- 110.500 at the (iv) wave retracement measurement level. I’m expecting a price rejection off this level and for a terminating (v) wave decline to unfold. Price target zone …

John LunneyGeneral Commentary

September Soybeans     The bean market started the week off in the red. Market posted low at 925 in front of intermediate support at +/- 920 and pressed off extreme to finish at 932.6. If the market can rise and hold above 935.4 it should establish its footing. One could argue that the recent lows marked the termination of …
