We will be watching early reports from the government on the Home Index, Chicago Purchasing Manager's Index (PMI), and Consumer Confidence. We will also be watching for new information about the newly detected Covid variant, and any new sales of soybeans and corn.
Weather
A band of snow has exited the Midwest and another system is building in the Pacific Northwest, but most areas are going to be dry on Tuesday. Warm temperatures will be in place for much of the country as well, with some well above normal temperatures across the Plains and western Midwest. The combination is unfavorable for winter wheat in the Southern Plains, which continues to find increasing drought conditions.
