Markets as I see them – April 27, 2009 Update May 12, 2009

Really looking for a medium term if not longer term Peak in Soybeans soon (within the next 2-3 weeks). Now!!

 

SOYBEANS:   Looking for a spring top in beans in the 11.00 – 11.40 May contract 11.60-11.70 area nearby contract.  We should be in the 5th wave of a 2nd corrective up wave (C?) so would expect a long drop to the $6.00 $6.50-7.00 area sometime late September/October.  Really depends on the stock market and the Chinese buying on how fast and far we drop.

 

Soybean Meal:  Still looking for a top in the $360.00 area to match the $11.00 beans.

 

CORN:  Ok Corn has really been lagging in the spring rally led by beans.  Looked for a top in the 4.50 area earlier but probably will have to pull the trigger on some sales when and if beans get to the $11.00 area $4.35-4.40 July contract 4.55-4.60 Dec..  Looking for a low in the $2.75 area by August/September and to match or exceed that on the downside in December.  Better chance for new crop to rally later than old crop as plant delays/switch to soybeans takes new crop bushels away.

 

Crude Oil:  Ok so I don’t claim to be an expert in the crude oil game.  Crude should make a push to the $60 area sometime in the next 30 days and then setback into the low $40 area for fall.

More expanded thoughts on markets when I get some free time from planting and fixing.

Good luck marketing
