Monday's trade will be centered around the release of January reports by USDA at 11 a.m. CST. Reports set for publication include the monthly WASDE, Crop Production (for 2025 corn and soybean harvests), Winter Wheat Seedings, as well as quarterly Grain Stocks which will give estimates of crop inventory as of December 1, 2025. USDA will also release their weekly export inspections report at 10 a.m. CST, but most other news will likely sit in the shadow of the later USDA data which has a historical tendency to be a market mover.
Weather
The week starts off on a largely quiet and warm note. Though a clipper system is moving through the Canadian Prairies on Monday, most of the U.S. will remain dry. Be on the lookout for some showers, breezy winds, and variable temperatures with clippers moving through this week.
