Tonight's Chicago close will be...

Forget the early call.

I've been playing with the ouija board and have made contact with a spirit guide who reckon's that she is able to tell me in advance what the close of Chicago is going to be. So over to you Septic Peg...

Tonight Nogger I see corn being the strongest leg of the complex, the voices tell me that decent export sales & concern over persistent cool & wet weather to continue for the next fortnight will see corn close around 10c higher....

...Beans & wheat however will not fare so well, despite a firmer opening beans will drift lower on ideas that the cold, wet weather may indeed lead to the USDA's acreage predictions being closer to the truth than many currently believe. Bean sales were also a little poor. Combined with rains in northern China relieving drought there I see beans closing 10-12c lower.

And for wheat, Peg? Well Nogger, like beans wheat's highest levels will be set early in the session but soybean weakness will also drag beans lower to close around 3c down.

Thanks Peg, any tips for the National? Ooooooooh, the voices are fading....
