Markets were mixed at midday with pressure in the wheat complex thanks to rains in the Southern Plains. We talk markets midweek with Arlan Suderman, Chief Commodities Economist at StoneX.

Soybeans and KC wheat led grains and livestock lower on the day Tuesday with funds seemingly getting out of longs in the soy complex and rain in the forecast for the Southern Plains playing a factor in KC wheat. A higher U.S. dollar also had an affect while corn was able to bounce back to near unchanged on the session in one positive note. We discuss the technical breakdown with Brian Splitt of AgMarket.net on today's show.
