CHICAGO, March 16 (Reuters) - Chicago Board of Trade wheat futures fell in sympathy with soybeans and corn on Monday, but worries about cold weather in the U.S. Plains gave K.C. hard red winter wheat futures some support.
Wheat futures eased following soybeans in particular. The oilseeds fell to their daily limit on Monday as a potential delay in U.S. President Donald Trump's meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping later in March dampened hopes of more U.S. soybean sales to China.
Stock market strength pushed the flow of money toward the equities market and away from commodities, according to analysts.
Cold temperatures posed a risk to the crop in the U.S. Southern Plains, which is already suffering from dry conditions.
