CHICAGO, Feb 14 (Reuters) - Following are U.S. expectations for the resumption of grain and soy complex trading at the Chicago Board of Trade at 8:30 a.m. CST (1430 GMT) on Friday.
WHEAT - Up 12 to 13 cents per bushel
CBOT wheat Wv1 futures jumped on investor relief that U.S. President Donald Trump did not immediately impose reciprocal tariffs globally, as traders monitored the impact of cold weather in wheat growing areas of the U.S.
The U.S. dollar traded near three-week lows on Friday. A lower U.S. dollar tends to make U.S. exports more less expensive and more competitive to holders of other currencies.
A cold shot will hit the U.S. Plains next week, but snow cover is expected to protect much of the crop from winterkill, according to Commodity Weather Group.
CBOT March soft red winter wheat WH25 was last up 13 cents at $5.90-3/4 per bushel. K.C. March hard red winter wheat KWH25 was last up 12 cents to $6.10-1/4 a bushel and Minneapolis March spring wheat MWEH25 was up 10-3/4 cents at $6.27-1/2 a bushel.
CORN - Up 2 to 4 cents per bushel
Corn futures Cv1 bounced on market relief that Trump did not immediately order reciprocal tariffs as well as brisk demand, according to analysts.
Strong export demand was reflected in the USDA's reported weekly net export sales numbers, which came in at 1,999,100 metric tons, above trade expectations of 800,000-1,700,000 tons.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture reported exporters sold 100,000 metric tons of corn to Colombia in a private sale for 2024/2025 delivery.
CBOT March corn CH25 was last up 3-1/2 cents at $4.97 per bushel.
SOYBEANS - Up 6-8 cents per bushel
Soybean futures ticked up as the lack of immediate reciprocal tariffs from the U.S. calmed fears of a full-blown trade war with top soybean importer China.
Favorable weather in Argentina and Brazil continues to aid crop development and fieldwork, according to Commodity Weather Group.
CBOT March soybeans SH25 were last up 7-1/2 cents to $10.37-1/2 per bushel.
