Re: Floor Talk December 16, 2020
Well Al, Production in South America isn't the only driver. The demand issue combined with lofty USDA totals which may or not be there, can't be ignored.
I hope everyone realizes that when the soybean carryover number gets down to 100 million bushels, it will not go any lower than that with USDA numbers. And once it gets to that level, rationing demand with large price increases is going to happen. End users have had plenty of time to secure supplies at much lower prices.......(like China) Every once in a while it's nice to be on the other side of that equation.
