Soybean bookings were strong, as expected, but down 38% from last week. “Unknown” was the big buyer, at 9.77 mbu. Oil sales were on the high end of trade estimates, but new bookings were 42,000 tonnes, with the balance being rollover. Meal bookings were also solid, and include 93,500 MT that were unshipped at the end of last year. Corn export bookings were well below trade estimates, with Japan and Taiwan the main buyers.
