The mix here is the story: soybeans and corn printed above expectations, implying heavier carryout than the trade had pencilled in, wheat came in exactly on consensus, and cotton printed below, implying a tighter balance than expected. The established pattern on report day is for the grains with the bearish surprise to do the moving while the in-line contract follows passively, with the miss sized in bushels rather than percentages mattering most for the front months. Cotton's below-consensus stocks print cuts the other way, and historically the softs have traded their own balance sheet rather than the grains' on the day. The follow-ons are the session's reaction in spreads, old crop versus new crop, and whether the revisions to the demand side, exports and crush, corroborate the stocks surprise or are a rounding residual; the next monthly report and the acreage and stocks updates on the calendar are where such revisions tend to be confirmed or walked back.
