Prices are notably off their highs and it doesn't take much weakness to trigger liquidation pressures. South American weather is favorable/acceptable/improving. Conab is still projecting Brazil's soybean production potential to be similar to what it was at the beginning of the growing season. China is well supplied and their domestic prices and crush margins support that statement. China's negotiating stance with a new Biden administration might be strengthened with a slow purchase pace of US ag goods from here forward. A look at 2012 into 2013 is a sobering reminder to producers and speculators that supply-driven bull markets can end much earlier than participants expect. Lots to discuss today. Today is a must listen for producers who have become complacent with a "no sales" stance.
