Tim Hannagan, PFGBest.com senior grain analyst, says the traders bought the lower crop condition ratings and lower ending stocks, giving us higher trade twice today. 

"Meanwhile, sellers pushed us lower on a big rain event in the Midwest for Sunday to Wednesday. There's lots to buy and sell today. When we come in Wednesday they will say what report, how's the weather? Weather remains 90% of our pricing influence."
