This is Bob Larson with the Market Line Report for Friday, June 7th. The grain market, led by corn, continues with its up and down trend. From the floor of the CME in Chicago, here's Scott Shellady.

SHELLADY ... "We got some bullish news this week with 67% planted versus expectations of 71. Well, what did that market do to you if you were a bull and rewarded you with getting the news right? It punished you by selling off and that market sold off pretty fast and that's what these markets do, right? See, I always talks about this. Five years from now when you look back at these events and you'll think man, I should have stayed long, I wish I was longer. A lot of times these good bull markets, and we're not quite in one yet so don't get too far ahead of yourselves, but a good bull market will make it hard for you to stay long and that's why it continues to rally because there aren't a lot of weak bulls in that market so it can go. The strong hands will take it higher and that's really what we might be setting up for here in corn."
