Wheat futures rose overnight on bargain hunting after a 14 cent drop on Tuesday. Fundamentally, little has changed in the past 24 hours. Russia's government said earlier this week that it won't implement export limits on wheat, while Argentina said it's adding a tax on all agricultural exports. Wheat futures gained 4-5 cents while corn and beans were little changed overnight. Export inspections in the last week of the marketing year were higher for corn but lower for beans. Wheat inspections also declined week-to-week and are trailing their year-ago pace, according to the USDA. In weather news, Tropical Storm Gordon made landfall, bringing severe weather to the Gulf Coast. Strong storms are also causing flooding in parts of Kansas, Iowa and Wisconsin today.
