While
the US was on holiday Monday, EU milling wheat futures climbed 1.75 to 4.25 euros with nearby March at a 2013 high, and China corn futures appreciated to a record on strength in the domestic market.  Chinese corn futures have rallied 40% in the past two months. 
EU corn traded higher.  EU rapeseed was 1.00-2.75 euros higher.  Malaysian palm oil traded higher.  Rotterdam oils fell 6-15 euros from Friday morning and Rotterdam meal was up 1 to down 5 euros.  Offshore values are suggesting a steady open for soybean oil
and $1.50-3.00 lower open for soybean meal, but a higher open in corn and wheat could underpin the soybean complex.

“Traditional”
fund positions for corn hit another record for futures only and futures and options combined.  We think managed money positions still have room to the upside.
