   EARLY MORNING GLOBEX NET CHANGES: September corn is down 1/4 cents and
August soybeans are down 1 3/4 cents. December corn is unchanged and November

   CME GLOBEX RECAP: Wheat markets are building momentum from Wednesday's
reversal after trading within a penny of contract lows on Kansas City futures
Wednesday. Meanwhile, corn and soybean markets appear to be feeling for at
least a short-term bottom after mixed trade Wednesday which saw corn markets
halt their two-day loss streak but soybeans remain under selling pressure.
Traders are preparing to at least briefly turn their attention to USDA's
estimates on Friday morning, where WASDE figures do have the potential to be
bullish in their changes at least for this report, but it remains to be seen if
traders will choose to quickly look past this report and back to the bearish
implications of friendly growing season weather and an uncertain world trade
outlook.
