Look Out!

  • Markets found some love again last night with Chicago and Kansas wheat up AUD $10 and AUD $7 respectively.

  • The Saudis are tending for 480,000 tonnes of wheat for delivery in the August – September period, which will be interesting to see where the Ruskies hit the new crop positions.

  • Russian wheat is currently quoted at USD $246 FOB (free on board) for June and USD $255 FOB for August – September.

  • This is below the USD $275 floor Hokey Pokey wanted to implement a couple of months ago.


  • The world market is the world market, and the Frogs and Sergeant Schultz dropped their pants and went well under the Ruskie unofficial floor, demonstrating a floor only works if you are the ground floor, and not the mezzanine level.

  • Russian wheat has come off USD $18 per tonne over the last month and Australia has come off USD $1 per tonne over the last month.

  • Aussie wheat is now priced at USD $47 over the Ruskies; go you good thing. That spread is on the back of a 39 million bin buster crop. Just imagine what that spread would be if we produced a smaller crop in 23/24?


  • Now for the good news, in a normal year, July – August is seasonally the low point in the Northern Hemisphere markets.

  • But is the 23/24 season a normal year?

  • At this stage apart from the Black Sea situation, the stocks held by the majors being tighter and the Cats not making finals, the world views 23/24 as a normal year.


  • (subscriber prices, market floors and reality)


  • But markets are markets, and the Saudi tender might give us a feel for the new crop bottom. The Ruskies might drop their pants to keep winning business.

  • However, it's June, and a long way to go, so I wouldn’t be dropping my pants yet and tearing up my Carlton membership.

  • I tell a lie; if I was a Carlton supporter, I would tear up my membership, who am I kidding.
