Meet NOAA, the Weather-Elephant in the Room and Other Friends in the Corn Field!
Ahead of the USDA June Acreage Report, I sat down with AgResource President Dan Basse over in Chicago. In my hunt for the elephant in the room surrounding this year’s grains crop, Dan shone the light on several impediments ranging from $34 per gallon diesel prices in Ukraine, to ultra-strong Chinese demand for Brazilian exports. It’s the sort of concoction that has the potential to make the June 30 release quite explosive.

Going to California
With all eyes on the Fed’s Wednesday announcement, Neil Azous is looking at the prospect of one particular recession indicator to start the race to interest rate cuts before the end of 2023.

The Sahm recession indicator is already flashing red in California, home to 50-million Americans and 15% of national GDP. Will the same ring true for the national economy following the July employment report? Neil hints that it will.
