What if you found out more corn would be planted in America in 2012 than in any single year since 1944 – which way do you think corn prices would move? | | You might think the market would tank, but near-term grain prices went limit up on the news on Friday! Odd as that may seem there was more to the story than just a lot of corn planted. | | | |
|
For those unfamiliar, the March 30th prospective plantings report from the USDA is widely considered one of the most important reports of the year for those trying to forecast supply and price in grains like corn, wheat, and soybeans. Some traders see the report itself as a tradable event and play various guessing games ahead of the release. However, once the information is out there is a whole other opportunity that can unfold. | | This year the market got thrown for a loop with the new crop season estimate for corn plantings. Remember that there are two very important relationships between corn, wheat and, soybeans. First, farmers can sometimes change what they plant based on current and projected prices (like if soybeans are trading sky high and corn is down and out, then timing a switch to beans might just save a crop year for a flexible farmer.) Second, demand can shift for consumption if prices between the grains get too far out of whack, which is a big part of inter-market spread trading (a trading approach unto itself). Ultimately, this corn data challenges farmers to react and make changes to their plans based upon projected supplies and forecasted prices of corn, wheat, and beans. | | |
