This is Bob Larson with the Market Line Report for Thursday, January 11th. Wheat holds steady in the market on Wednesday. From the floor of the CME in Chicago, here's Virginia McGathey ...

Virginia McGathey ... "Wheat kind of bounced around a little bit, but we got some support in the futures that kind of gave the prices somewhat of a boost. There is still some weather concerns about the wheat because we're expecting some frigid weather again next week, but the up-trend is still remaining intact even though long-term there's a lot of wheat out there. It was really on the down-side, but the market still keeps to be marching ahead. So, the next target looks like $437. You know, perhaps we'll get there. We're only a couple of cents away. If that happens and we get a new wave of buying, this could be really great for wheat because it really tumbled a lot from its high when we rallied in June."
