Overnight Grain Mixed In Wild Session

Grains are currently mixed overnight on the eCBOT market with wheat down around 5c, corn 2c lower and soybeans 13-14c higher.

It looks like it's been quite a wild session as wheat and corn were both around 16c higher earlier in the session and beans were as much as 63c higher.

Beans are up on news that China was said in early trade to place orders for about 5,000 soybean contracts for nearby delivery months.

Chicago futures also gained after Argentine farmers began a protest outside congress yesterday to pressure the government to remove taxes and restrictions on exports of grains and beef.

Crude oil for November delivery fell as much as $2.69 to an eight month low of $87.37 a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange, and traded at $88.05 a barrel at 08:45BST.

US gasoline demand dropped 9.5 percent last week, according to MasterCard Inc.
