CBOT corn ends firm on bargain buying, technical support
ReutersFeb 26, 2026 8:31 PM
CHICAGO, Feb 26 (Reuters) - Chicago Board of Trade corn futures traded mixed on Thursday and ended mostly higher on technical and bargain buying, analysts said.
An early-session drop in soybean futures fueled selling in corn before the late-session rebound.
Corn prices remained well supported by strong export demand, despite a lower-that-expected week of sales last week, analysts said.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture said net U.S. corn export sales in the week ended February 19 fell to 697,489 metric tons, below trade estimates and the lowest in seven weeks.
CBOT May corn CK26 closed 1-1/2 cents higher at $4.43-1/2 per bushel after rising to its highest point since January 12 during the session.
