The lack of rain for the heart of the Midwest for the next week after the extreme heat of last week has traders expecting sharply lower yield potential for the soybean crop and this has sparked the aggressive buying in soybeans and corn. Weather maps are showing a break from the record heat this week, but mostly dry conditions. The southeast and delta are expected to see showers this week but coverage and accumulation is expected to be low. None-the-less, the rainfall should be beneficial to soybeans in these regions. Traders look for crop conditions for tonight's update to show good to excellent ratings drop to just 40% from 45% last week for the soybean crop and this compares with 66% last year and 64% as the 10-year average. Weekly export inspections came in at 18.9 million bushels as compared with 13.89 million last week and 12 million necessary each week to reach the USDA projection for the year. Outside markets provided a mixed tone with the U.S. Dollar trading lower, stocks were lower, and energies higher on the day.
