The June 30th Acres and Stocks Report is next Wednesday at 11 am central.

This is the kind of volatility you can get when crop stocks are tight and new crop stocks are projected adequate-to-tight.  The summer weather volatility can be off the charts.  Expect more of the same over the next few weeks.  In our latest podcast we go over how to trade, hedge and market in these periods. Make sure you take a listen to this week’s Turner’s Take Podcast!
