Soybeans Feeling Pressure on Thursday

Soybeans are down 1 to 5 cents at midday, with front-month contracts leading the declines and the national average cash bean price falling 5 1/4 cents to $10.96. Soymeal is firmer by 90 cents to $1.00, but soy oil is weaker by 42 to 54 points, leaving the complex mixed overall. The move appears to be a routine midday price update rather than a major fundamental catalyst.
