Corn and Soy In the Green: 10:01 a.m. CT

“Today’s trade is important,” said Naomi Blohm, senior market advisor at Total Farm Marketing. “Either bargain buying emerges for corn and soybeans and prices find a good support area, or technical selling wins out the day (and then likely the rest of this week).
“The downside on corn, if further technical selling emerges, points to a 20¢ push lower, based on the recent consolidation pattern. That would take July 2025 corn prices back down to the fall lows.
“The downside on soybeans, if further technical selling emerges, would be a retest of the early April lows — nearly 50¢ lower (based on the head and shoulders formation).”
