Favorable factors boost grain and oilseed markets, led by wheat, corn, soybeans, and soybean oil.

On Tuesday (November 19),Market makers CBOT major grain and oilseed futures markets surged across the board. Wheat and corn performed strongly driven by export sales data and geopolitical tensions, while soybeans and soybean oil continued their upward trend. In contrast, soybean meal showed a lackluster performance due to weak demand.

Soybeans and Soybean Oil: Strong Export Demand Support
January soybean futures rose 11.25 cents to $10.09-3/4 per bushel, boosted by export sales. Data showed a significant increase in U.S. soybean export purchases from Mexico, India, and the Philippines, providing short-term support to the market. Despite improved planting prospects in South America due to rainfall, the U.S. exports remained competitive. From a technical perspective, soybean futures stood firm above $10, with the potential to challenge resistance levels at $10.15 or even $10.30 in the short term.

The soybean oil market showed strength, with December futures prices rising 0.28 cents to 51.56 cents/pound, largely driven by India's record-high import purchases. In the short term, a further rise in the basis could provide more support to soybean oil prices, targeting 52 cents/pound.

Soybean Meal: Weak Demand Hampers Rebound
The soybean meal market was relatively flat, with December futures edging up $0.10 to $289.70/short ton. Weak demand was the main drag, with seasonal decline in animal feed demand and expectations of new South American soybean supply putting pressure on prices. If export demand does not improve significantly, soybean meal prices may struggle to break through the critical resistance level of $300/short ton.

Corn and Wheat: Geopolitical Tensions Drive Prices Higher
December corn futures rose 5.25 cents to $4.29-1/4 per bushel, buoyed by the rise in the wheat market, while export data meeting high-end expectations further supported prices. The U.S. harvest season is nearing its end, easing domestic supply pressure and providing a bottom-line support for the corn market.

The wheat market showed remarkable performance, with December futures prices rising 10.75 cents to $5.47-1/4 per bushel. Geopolitical tensions in the Black Sea region sparked fears of supply disruptions, driving prices upward. From a technical perspective, wheat futures are facing a resistance level at $5.50, and breaking through might open up further upside potential.

Outlook and Summary
Overall, export sales data and geopolitical tensions are the main factors driving the recent market rally. Soybeans and soybean oil showed strong performance, while soybean meal appeared weak due to insufficient demand. Wheat and corn were lifted by the situation in the Black Sea, but attention should be paid to the potentially negative impact of a strengthening dollar and weather conditions on the market. Moving forward, traders should closely monitor export dynamics and basis fluctuations, as these will be important signals affecting market prices.
