DTN Closing Grain Comments    07/18 13:41
   Wheat Awakens to Lead Row Crops to Strong Weekly Finish

   Grain futures rebounded from a shaky Thursday session to roll into the
weekend with strong gains, led by wheat finally catching a bid amid contract
lows to trade double-digits higher for winter varieties. Meanwhile, soybeans
strung together three solid days to close the week, adding over 30 cents of
value to the new-crop November contract from Tuesday's close. Commodity markets
did fade off daily highs as the session wore on Friday, with profit-taking
beginning in energy markets before seeping into agriculture markets by late
morning. After Friday's close, traders will want to tune in for the CFTC's
latest Commitments of Traders Report which will shed light on trader positions
as of Tuesday's close.
