Corn basis deteriorating this am

By 5-10 cents. Might b everyone waiting for the rally to settle. Or buyers looking to pickup gains from futures? Guess no one wants the risk of decline.

I am impressed by this rally... I'm thinking we will Goto 4.60 on march.

Might be some great bids come spring.

Would b interesting to see

I think the commercials do that time to time just to shake the tree to see what falls out.

Probably not a long term thing.
