This Week on SUNUP is Oklahoma State University Extension grain market economist Kim Anderson. During this week’s edition, Anderson talks about the latest in the commodity markets.
“Wheat was a little more active than the other markets this week,” Anderson said. “You look at about a 35-cent price range for wheat prices from $8.90 up to $9.25 end of the week in the middle there somewhere.”
On corn, Anderson said only 11 cents moved from the bottom to the top. Corn moved $7.27 to $7.38, he added.
Soybeans didn’t have any big moves this week, Anderson said, as they moved from $14.28 to $14.50. Cotton, Anderson said, is unchanged from last week.
“The winds aren’t blowing in the market,” Anderson said.
2022 harvest for all practical purposes is completed, Anderson said, and there are still drought issues and uncertainty about production.
“The market adapts to shocks in the market,” Anderson said.
Things are starting to adjust to the shocks that have been in the market, Anderson said, and prices are waiting to see what is going to happen in the future.
While there is always the chance of prices lowering in the market, Anderson said there are tight stocks in the commodity markets which will help those high prices hold.
