ADMISI London Wheat Report

A new week and prices began as expected, higher under the belief that China would be back buying at least another 2mmt of US corn at some point this week. However prices turned weaker this afternoon, perhaps from the absence of such buying or from large scale profit taking following such a rise last week.

China bought a huge 5.85mmt of US corn last week, pushing prices up over 45cents and the market into overbought territory. These purchases included the single largest daily purchase of corn since 1991, and pushed Chinese imports above the 17.5mmt estimated by the USDA. The strength in Corn may have helped wheat as demand is growing and the price spread narrowing. Higher corn prices, which may exceed $6.00/bu if some analysts are to be believed based on tight carryouts, will mean a battle for US acres come the spring as producers consider switching from wheat over to beans or corn.

Although a drier forecast for South America is creeping back in, wet weather in brazil is delaying the soybean harvest and pushing demand north to the US. This potential switch of 50-100million bushels could threaten to put US soybean carryouts below pipeline supply and push prices back up towards the $15.00/bu mark (supposedly).

EU wheat still needs to ration demand, especially with talk that Russia may introduce a $70/t export fee sales above $200/t from the 1st June. However prices followed global markets lower today, as did London wheat prices. Demand here in the UK appears to be lacking, at least short term, with Feb/Mar milling wheat premiums coming under pressure from lack of buyers.
