Good Morning!

The API data showed builds of 5.661 million barrels.

In the overnight electronic session the April Crude Oil is currently trading at 6233 which is 27 points lower. The trading range has been 6239 to 6180. Today at 9;30 A.M. we will have the EIA Energy Stocks and see if there is any change in the data, which will either confirm or deny the API overshot the bearish build. At 7;30 A.M. we have the U.S. Trade Balance followed at 2:00 P.M. we have Consumer Credit and Dairy Product Sales.

On the Corn front we have the market looking ahead to tomorrows Export Sales, Crop Production and USDA Supply/Demand. Sales have been moving but there is still plenty to be made with prices still cheap and Argentina’s shortfall will be close to as advertised but traders and investors think the rains in Brazil will see the crop come around but at we be looking at price fluctuations and changes in Corn and Soybean plantings that have already been schedule to plant.
