CBOT wheat falls 1.76% for the week; soybean oil drops 2.13%
AI take
The split between soybean oil's decline and soybeans' modest gain points to weakness specific to the oilseed complex rather than broad agricultural demand. Lean hogs' steep drop suggests livestock margins are under pressure, which could feed back into feed demand for corn and soybeans. Whether the grains subindex's retreat from its midweek high proves a pause or a reversal is the open question.
