Monday Watch List

Markets
Coronavirus new updates and the latest weather forecasts are apt to be at the top of list for Monday's market topics. USDA's weekly report of grain export inspections is set for 10 a.m. CDT, followed by the Crop Progress report at 3 p.m. In Monday's report, corn and spring wheat planting along with winter wheat conditions are apt to get the most attention.

Weather
Rain showers with mostly light amounts will cross the Midwest Monday, bringing some interruptions to fieldwork and planting. A few showers are also indicated in the interior Northwest. Temperatures will be seasonal to above normal in the Midwest and above to much above normal in the Plains, a sharp contrast to last year's cold and wet pattern.
