Wheat Slips Lower into the Week’s Close

Wheat futures weakened into the long weekend, with Chicago SRW down 1.5 to 7.25 cents at the close, though July still finished the week up 21.25 cents. KC HRW contracts also closed lower, falling 4.5 to 8 cents. The move reflects short-term pressure across the wheat complex rather than a fundamental shock.
