📢 Trump Extends EU Tariff Deadline + Market Reactions, Weather, & Ag Tech News! 🌽📈

🚨 Tariff Talk Heats Up
President Trump has extended the EU tariff deadline to July 9 following a call with EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. The move delays a proposed 50% tariff on EU goods 😳 — part of Trump’s reciprocal tariff strategy. Markets are breathing a sigh of relief today after a volatile Friday 📉➡️📈. The S&P 500 is up 1.6%!
📱 Meanwhile, Trump also proposed a 25% tariff on foreign-made smartphones, including Apple and Samsung devices. 📲💸

🌦️ Weekend Weather Update
Rain favored the Plains & Mid-South, hitting NE, KS, OK, TX, AR, & the Gulf 🌧️. The Corn Belt stayed mostly dry, though scattered showers are seen in SD, MN, NE, & IA this morning. Divergence between the Euro & GFS models creates some forecast uncertainty this week. 🤔🌀

📊 Money Moves in the Corn Market
"The Funds" are getting bearish! 🐻 Last week, money managers increased their net short corn position to 95k contracts — the biggest since Oct ‘24. Also:
• Soybeans: net sellers of 24k
• SRW Wheat: net buyers of 20k

🐮 Cattle on Feed Report = Bullish?
• On Feed: 11.4M head (⬇️ 2%)
• April Placements: Lowest since 2020
• Beef in Cold Storage: Lowest for April since 2014
This tight supply setup could fuel further gains in cattle prices. 🚀🥩

🚁 John Deere Goes Airborne!
Big green is making moves! 💚 John Deere just acquired Sentera, a drone and ag tech firm helping farmers spot weeds and monitor crops from the sky. This supports Deere’s automation push in response to labor shortages and adds to their strong 2025 — the stock is up 22% YTD 📈🌾
