It's a mixed bag in grains and livestock to start the week as traders still seem to be digesting the USDA reports from Friday. We discuss what is happening in the markets with Arlan Suderman, Chief Commodities Economist at StoneX.

On Friday, USDA dropped a ton of data onto the markets and much of it seemed to lean bearish. A record U.S. corn yield for 2023, higher 2023 U.S. soybean yield, higher ending stocks; there was so much data to digest. We breakdown the reports and market reaction on today's show in a roundtable discussion with Kristi Van Ahn-Kjeseth from Van Ahn & Company along with Tommy Grisafi from Advance Trading and ATI Pro Media.
