Soybean prices continue to rise on the Chicago Stock Exchange in this Friday's session (5), but intensifying the increases in relation to the movement at the beginning of the day. Prices rose between 11.75 and 19.50 points in the main contracts, with July worth US$ 14.34 and August, US$ 13.72 per bushel. At the same time, soybean oil futures rose more than 3% on the CBOT and, as the Agrinvest Commodities team explains, this movement is responsible for much of the support for grain prices in this last session of the week.
According to the consultancy, the derivative rises supported by the reversal of the downward trend in oil, which also rises sharply this Friday; by the projection of palm oil stocks in Malaysia of approximately 10% in the monthly comparison and the reversal of the downward trend of soybean oil itself in Chicago, which reached its lowest point in 16 months without being able to break it.
