- Last week’s National Oilseed Processors Association October crush report showed that members collectively crushed 184.5 million bushels of soybeans during the month- right on the dot with pre-report trade estimates.

- US ag export sales were relatively strong for corn and soybeans. Soybean sales were especially strong and the second largest volume on record.

- Open interest futures and options positions of Chicago wheat and Chicago soybeans were marginally up this week while corn saw a 4% decrease in open interest positions. Money managers sold out of net corn positions in a big way over 60,000 positions while the soybean market saw a more marginal sell off of nearly 11,000 positions.

- The UN, Ukraine, and Russia grain corridor agreement was extended for another 120 days starting Nov. 18th, without any changes to the current one.

- Last week’s USDA Cattle on Feed Report showed all U.S. cattle on feed as of Nov. 1 at 11.706 million head or 98.0% of last year’s volume. October placements were down sharply at 93.9% below.

- The nation’s second largest railroad worker union narrowly rejected the agreement that prevented a national railroad strike two months ago. Without an agreed deal- portions of the railroad industry could strike as early as December 8th.

- Weekly US export inspections were up week over week for corn, soybeans, grain sorghum and wheat. Everything was within pre-report trade expectations.

- Some of the US export sales help is coming on the heels of a weaking US dollar index which traded at its lowest level since August last week.
