Wheat swings after two-year high as Black Sea risks clash with weak US export sales
AI Market Summary
Wheat is consolidating after a two-year high as traders balance escalating Russia-Ukraine attacks on Black Sea grain export corridors—raising global supply disruption risk—against weak US weekly export sales (235k tons, lowest since May). The mix of geopolitical risk support and soft demand signals is driving two-way price action, with profit-taking emerging near technical resistance around $7/bushel.

Wheat futures turned volatile after touching a two-year high, as traders weighed heightened attacks on grain export corridors in the Black Sea that threaten global food supplies. At the same time, weekly US wheat export sales came in at just 235,000 tons, the lowest since May. The most-active Chicago wheat contract was at $6.74 a bushel, while corn and soybeans also traded but lacked a similarly strong driver.
