Corn Lower on Limited Expectations from Trump's Iowa Speech -- Market Talk

Dow Jones01-28

1443 ET - Most-active corn futures on the CBOT are down 0.5% late in trading, turning lower while soybeans and wheat rise. Many are looking toward President Trump's speech in Clive, Iowa this afternoon, but expectations of what he might say on the podium are limited. "I can only think the market is prepared for another disappointing speech in Iowa today," says Linda Meyer of Agrisource. "That has been the trend." Trump is scheduled to speak in Iowa at 3 p.m. Central time, and may comment on issues like year-round E15 motor vehicle fuel, which is important to corn growers. Soybeans rise 0.5%, and wheat is up 0.1%. (kirk.maltais@wsj.com)
