Next Week Critical for Wheat Prices, Kim Anderson Says
Thu, 29 Aug 2013 18:19:11 CDT
The 20-cent runup in wheat prices this week has traders excited, but all it did was put prices in the top half of the sideways range they had been trading in. So says Oklahoma State University Small Grains Marketing Specialist Kim Anderson. In his preview for this week's SUNUP show, Anderson says there's just not much going on in wheat markets right now.
"This is the week before a three-day weekend and traders are just getting into position for the long weekend. Next week is going to be the critical price time."
Anderson says he expects the price of wheat in December will be between $7.00 and $7.25. He expects a big crop next year and is betting on $6.00 wheat next June.
