    Nice I've been thinking about Ag futures the last few weeks -- It's been a while since I looked at them. I'll check em out again next week.

    I really think those futures are wrong.

    Here are the main headlines on yahoo.com

    As of 6:52 p.m. EDT
    • At least 44 Iraqis killed across country
    • Majority of Iraqi youth wants U.S. out
    • GOP losses could spark partisan warfare
    • Early results: Panama OKs canal project
    • Tropical storm strengthens off Mexico
    • Ohio River cruise illness may be common virus
    • Baseball players, owners said to reach labor deal
    • World Series · NFL · NCAAF · NASCAR · Soccer


    nothing there seems it could move the futures up 15 points.

    I hope Barrons is wrong, they write the article like they are 101% positive that the republicans will hold on and win.

    I'd cover right here (7850) -- I'm sure a lot of other peeps shorted as well. There might be a cover pop.

  9. Did you guys know a 1 cent move in soybeans is equivalent to a one point move in the SP Mini. Margins are a third of what the mini is.

    I think the move in the US futures is over, its just to risky right now.
