This is Bob Larson with the Market Line Report for Wednesday July 18th. Weather continues to play a big role on the trading floor Tuesday. From the floor of the CME in Chicago, here's Joe Vaclavik ...

Vaclavik ... "Now, weather, I think, forecast and patterns moving forward, they're probably the bigger deal here in regard to. And we've seen some pretty erratic and unreliable forecasts from the GFS here recently. Now, early this morning, we were looking at a hotter, drier pattern for a lot of the corn belt. Those forecasts then shifted at midday and turned a little wetter, a little bit cooler. So, we're seeing some volatile trade as a result of that. With the forecasts go the markets this time of year and today was really no different. Now, yield is really the name of the game here. What type of yield can traders punch into their balance sheets? And that's kind of what we're in the process of discovering here."
