EARLY MORNING GLOBEX NET CHANGES: December corn is down 1 1/4 cents per
bushel, November soybeans are down 6 1/2 cents, December KC wheat is down 3/4
cent, December Chicago wheat is down 1 1/2 cents and December Minneapolis wheat
is down 2 1/2 cents.
CME GLOBEX RECAP: World equity markets are mixed, but mostly higher, with
U.S. markets trying to bounce after a six-week winning streak was broken with
Friday's lower weekly close. Higher interest rates that suggest a less
aggressive pace of rate cuts from the Federal Reserve was one of the main
reasons for the pullback in stock prices. Concerns about the situation in the
Middle East was also a factor in last week's trade. This week, traders will
continue to evaluate corporate earnings, as well as digest several new economic
data points.
New data that will be released this week includes the Case-Shiller home
price index, consumer confidence, and job openings (Jolt) that will be released
on Tuesday. On Wednesday, we will see the ADP employment data, 3rd quarter GDP,
and pending home sales. Thursday brings initial jobless claims, personal
income, personal spending, the Chicago PMI, and the PCE data that is the Fed's
favorite inflation indicator. Finally on Friday, we get the U.S. employment
report, construction spending, auto sales, and the ISM manufacturing index. It
is a very busy week for data.
OUTSIDE MARKETS: Previous close Friday showed the Dow Jones Industrial
Average down 259.96 at 42,114.40 and the S&P 500 down 1.74 at 5,808.12, The
