This is Bob Larson with the Market Line Report for Monday, Nov 19th. Market uncertainty leaves grain traders feeling low Friday. From the floor of the CME in Chicago, here's Scott Shellady.

SHELLADY ... "I tell you what, it's all about Asia and what that's doing to our markets here in the States when it comes to say livestock and/or grains. We had Japan effecting our livestock market, now we've got China all year long effecting our grain markets. Reports of a letter sent to our trade delegation lifted the hopes and buoyed sentiment amongst grain traders here in Chicago and we got off to a pretty decent start here this morning. However, right, it always seems that there's always a but or a however, after the market rallied and opened strong it started to slowly but surely give back its gains and I think, as we got the high of about $8.97 here this morning, because we couldn't break through that $9.00 level, that disappointed some investors and I think that that is why we've seen things come off."
