Soybeans Facing Pressure as Products Retreat

Soybeans are down 6 to 9 3/4 cents on Thursday despite another round of export business, with the cmdtyView national average Cash Bean price off 9 cents to $10.70. Soymeal futures are lower by $4.90 to $5.10 and soy oil is falling another 205 to 215 points, pointing to broad weakness across the soy complex. The move is negative for near-term grain pricing but looks like routine commodity volatility rather than a major market event.
