   EARLY MORNING GLOBEX NET CHANGES: July corn is down 1/2 cent per bushel,
July soybeans are down 8 3/4 cents, July KC wheat is up 1/4 cent, July Chicago
wheat is up 1 1/4 cents and July Minneapolis wheat is up 2 1/2 cents.

   CME GLOBEX RECAP: World equity markets are mixed after U.S. markets managed
to shrug off early losses and post another higher close on Tuesday. The data
was mostly skewed toward economic weakness, as consumer confidence, the
Case-Shiller home price index and job openings were all below trade
expectations. The U.S. trade deficit was the highest in history, as companies
moved quickly to try and import goods before tariffs went into effect.
Wednesday, we get another series of reports including the ADP employment
report, 1st quarter GDP, the employment cost index, consumer spending, personal
income, and the PCE report which is probably the most important report.

   OUTSIDE MARKETS: Previous closes Tuesday showed the Dow Jones Industrial
Average up 300.03 at 40,527.62 and the S&P 500 up 32.08 at 5,560.83. The
10-Year Treasury yield ended at 4.173%. Early Wednesday, the June Dow Jones
Futures are down 13 points. European markets are mixed with the spot futures of
London's FTSE 100 trading down 0.05%, spot futures of Germany's DAX are trading
up 0.37% and the spot futures of France's CAC 40 Index up 0.37%. Asian markets
are mixed with Japan's Nikkei 225 Index up 0.57% and China's Shanghai Composite
Index down 0.23%.
