The Soy Complex: The Soy Complex looks to start higher tonight. The soy has been and will be led by meal. The weather in Argentina has participants worried that the global supply of meal will be hurt given the weather scenario. This is overblown, but the market will rally until a comfort from rain is received. The reality in my …

Sean LuskGeneral Commentary

Soy Complex Despite a bearish WASDE report Thursday from the USDA that showed a rise in soybean ending stocks by 60 million bushels, beans remain resilient.
