Dollar remained steady in
Brazil and Argentina at 3.15 and 2.95 respectively, allowing relatively
fluent market.
Weather
conditions continued favorable for winter crops plantings, confirming
expectations for a decent increase on areas, both in Brazil and
Argentina, being the only feature cropswise as all harvesting is
practically finished.
No
question, the bottle-neck of logistics is the still unsolved mess created
by Chinese rejection of Brazilian soybeans, which congested most of
terminal elevators, flooded with stocks, and smashed soybeans and
products´ premiums, which will remain depressed until some light is
brought into this problem.
Corn
shipments remained steady in Argentina, however market still shows
competitive levels, on account of : High dollar, the tail of the harvest
and good prospects for Brazilian winter crop, which is expected to bring
some liquidity mid July onwards.
Argentine
wheat looks heavy, somehow trapped between the very slow demand from
Brazil and the good prospects from Northern Hemisphere. Market starts to
show signs from the large carry – over that Argentina keeps holding.
