1350 ET - Movement in energy prices is supporting the turnaround seen in grain futures this afternoon, says Oliver Sloup of Blue Line Futures. "I think you see strength in the energy complex; oil, heating oil, RBOB also offering support," says Sloup. Light crude is up 2.5%, to $85.28 a barrel, according to LSEG data, with Brent crude oil up 2.2%, to $91.19 a barrel. Grains like corn have been riding waves with energy prices, due to the usage of it in renewable fuels like ethanol. Most-active CBOT corn is up 0.6%, while wheat rises 0.5% and soybeans fall 0.3%.
