U.S. wheat futures slide at Monday midday, CBOT and KCBT down 14–16 cents
AI Market Summary
U.S. wheat futures traded sharply lower across SRW, HRW, and spring wheat, aligning with broader commodity weakness. Export inspections rose week-over-week and year-over-year, but marketing-year shipments remain materially behind last year, keeping demand concerns in focus. CFTC positioning shows managed money rapidly reducing CBOT net shorts while adding to KC net longs, indicating an ongoing rebalancing that may increase near-term volatility.
