Don't Count Out Corn or Beans—Yet

from Hedge Heads

With 78% of corn and 66% of soybeans already planted, many are wondering: is the seasonal rally already priced in? Jon Prischman and Ryan Tungseth dig into the wet weather, early emergence, and a market that's moving in contradictory ways. They tackle why old crop corn is seeing strong demand and export news—but keeps getting sold, how soybeans could still surprise to the upside, and why cattle prices are nearly untouchable. Plus, they cover hedging tactics using carry, the real risk of shorting this market too soon, and what it would take to finally see a summer rally. Metals, fuel, and interest rates round out a jam-packed episode full of straight talk and strategy. "Hedge Heads" is your go-to podcast for cutting through the noise of the futures markets. We get down to the nitty-gritty of grain and cattle trading, with a side of equities and crude oil talk, all while keeping an eye on the latest news that affects your bottom line.
