This is Bob Larson with the Market Line Report for Tuesday, June 25th. The market trends higher in spite of expectations in Monday trading. From the floor of the CME in Chicago, here's Virginia McGathey.

McGATHEY ... "KC wheat was leading the complex and really up well into the double digits. Interestingly enough, is that this rally with all the economic indicators and the fundamentals, really a point a bearish move in something a little bit lower. But, corn and beans are bringing it along. There is some dryness around the world that there could be some kind of issue. Now, there has been talk in the U.S. that the weather has been affecting some of the crops. In wheat, we really haven't got all that much information to understand how devastating it would be or what the actual numbers would be, but I think that it's got everybody a little bit long now and any shorts that were left have covered and starting to push the market higher. Maybe algorithms are also helping the market move."
