Hard Red Wheat Futures Market News and Commentary

Wheat Closes the Week with Mixed Action

The wheat market closed Friday mixed across the three exchanges, as the winter wheats were the strongest. Chicago SRW futures were up 3 to 5 cents to close the day, as March was still down a dime on the week. KC HRW futures were 1 to 2 cents higher as well on the session, with March slipping 12 cents since last Friday. MPLS spring wheat was 1 to 2 cents in the red, with March losing just 1 ¾ cents on the week. March options expired today.

CFTC data from this afternoon indicated managed money continuing to cover shorts in the Chicago wheat during the week that ended on 2/18, reducing the net short by 21,232 contracts to 61,577 contracts. In KC wheat, they timed back 8,158 contracts from their net short to 22,090 contracts by Tuesday. 

The Friday morning Export Sales report totaled all wheat bookings at 532,674 MT during the week ending on 2/13. That was down 6.48% from the week prior, but still 128.11% larger than the same week in 2024. Mexico was the buyer of 147,300 MT,... Read more
