CBOT futures are trading higher led by the Wheat markets. Wheat futures are supported by short-covering (trading funds are huge shorts) and some export business. Corn is also bouncing off new contract lows on technical buying. A continued surge in soybean oil futures is holding up soybean futures.

Cattle futures are lower with midday boxed beef near steady after dropping hard on Tuesday.
