  12. USDA Grain Report CORNFutures plunged to a 3 year low closing at 441.5 USDA boosted its inventory estimates by 25%. There is talk of corn hitting a low of almost 400?! “The market is going to be dealing with big corn supplies for the next year, and that’s going to limit rallies” Dale Durcholz (taken from bloomberg.com)

  13. USDA Grain Report WHEATFutures for December delivery fell 0.7% to 678.5 countering a price rise in the previous five sessions (the longest rally since mid-March). The report was in linen with expectations and upped its stock and production estimates and also revised world demand upwards. SOYBEANSLost 2.75% (the largest drop in six months) and closed at 1,282.75 as supplies topped analyst estimates by 11% (original estimates of 661 bushels revised to 694 bushels). Inventories are at 141 bushels and demand predictions have tumbled 41% from August estimates.

  17. Why You Rocked! Creativity was king… or at least it should be! (we’ll get into the reasons why in a minute) Assigned a ranking based on the following 4 criteria.

  18. Why You Rocked! Different Styles Airlie is the creativity Queen!Have you read her blog?!? You should! Not only did she analyze her portfolio and the market on a daily basis, but she brilliantly ties it all back the farm with stories from her childhood. Amanda is the Queen of strategy! Who needs Bloomberg. Maybe she’ll offer subscriptions. All the Top 5s Thoughtful and insightful analysis Original and easy to read Concise writing style with good flow Good strategizing

  19. Why You Rocked! BACK TO CREATIVITY.. Everyone’s blogs were excellent and a lot of work has gone into them but…. We spend all day tracking the market and the blogs are starting to look a bit like the financial news we see all day. This can be a bit BORING Especially when we have to read 25 of them! step out of your comfort zone and embrace your inner storyteller! (next week’s review group, you can thank us later)
