Dear , Please find below the link to our latest report, this week on Corn ! Key points: The corn market has been relatively quiet in recent days, torn between robust biofuel demand in the US and logistical challenges in northern China, vs. good crop prospects in South America and harvest pressure in Europe.

No20 : 3rd Nov21

Currently at around 2.25, the Nov’22 soybean to .....

Key points: Grain markets remain in their transition phase as corn and oilseeds harvests in the northern hemisphere continue to unfold, while buyers get more active as they normally take advantage of lower prices prevailing at this time of the year – noticeably hog producers who do their utmost to have as many animals as possible available for feeding into November.

Dear , Please find below the link to our latest report, this week on Macro ! Key points: The theoretical model on the effects of interest rates stipulates that monetary expansion temporarily drops the real interest rate – whether via a decrease in the nominal interest rate, an increase in inflation, or both. Commodity prices then accelerate to the upside until they reach overvalued territory – a stage in which market operators’ expectation of a future price correction is large enough to adjust .....

Dear , Please find below the link to our latest report, this week on Oilseed complex ! Key points: The quarterly stock report released by the USDA on 30 September came as a surprise to some market operators if one judges by the price reaction afterward.
