This month’s WASDE report showed a bullish outlook on soybeans. USDA made cuts to both soybean and corn numbers and left the South American crop unchanged.
An economist says both marketplaces are uncertain with the news about the South American crop and the potential for trade wars with the incoming Administration. It is something that traders are watching, but they warn there are several other factors at play moving forward.
“This is something that we’ve got to keep an eye on, but the big questions remain, as I said with the corn, it’s the South American production. And then we do have to concern ourselves with risk to prices based off of any tariffs coming in with the new Presidency and potential trade wars,” said Greg McBride.
Also on everyone’s radar in the coming weeks is Brooke Rollins, President-elect Trump’s pick to lead USDA. Cabinet nominees have begun their confirmation hearings this week. So far, Rollins’ hearing has not been scheduled.
