An index on U.S. consumer confidence is due out at 9 a.m. CDT Tuesday. Grains are mostly higher early Tuesday, but may turn quiet ahead of Thursday's Acreage and Grain Stocks reports.
Weather
A cold front from the weekend has settled into the far South and Southeast where pop up showers will be likely. Another front is moving south out of Canada into the North-Central U.S. where more showers will be possible for the rest of the week as the front waffles around for the next several days. Showers will unfortunately be somewhat spotty and dryness is popping up in places around the region that could use a good soaking.
