AI take
The divergence within the grains complex is the real story here: wheat's slide against firm corn suggests the weakness is wheat-specific rather than a broad demand signal. The grains subindex nearing its August low gives the move technical weight beyond a single session's headline. Whether the subindex holds that prior low, or wheat's underperformance against corn persists, is the open question worth tracking.
