EARLY MORNING GLOBEX NET CHANGES: March corn is up 2 cents per bushel,
January soybeans are up 6 cents, March KC wheat is up 4 3/4 cents, March
Chicago wheat is up 6 1/2 cents and March Minneapolis wheat is up 2 cents.
CME GLOBEX RECAP: U.S. equity markets are lower again Wednesday morning
after Tuesday's mixed session where only the NASDAQ was higher. The 10-year
note moving down to under 4.2% helped the tech sector, but lower interest rates
no longer seem to want to help the Dow or the S&P. Weaker economic data is now
being seen more as a potential drag on earnings, and the big rally in November
has put stock valuations at levels that might not be sustainable. Tuesday's
Factory Orders report was worse than expected. Wednesday morning we get the ADP
employment report which could be a precursor to Friday's labor report. We also
get U.S. productivity and the U.S. trade deficit.
OUTSIDE MARKETS: Previous close Tuesday showed the Dow Jones Industrial
Average down 79.88 at 36,124.56 and the S&P 500 down 2.60 at 4,567.18. The
10-Year Treasury yield ended at 4.17%. Early Wednesday, December Dow Jones
Futures are up 42 points. European markets are higher with the spot futures of
London's FTSE 100 trading up 0.47%, spot futures of Germany's DAX are trading
up 0.27% and the spot futures of France's CAC 40 Index up 0.34%. Asian markets
are mixed with Japan's Nikkei 225 Index up 2.04% and China's Shanghai Composite
Index down 0.11%.
