This is Bob Larson with the Market Line Report for Tuesday, December 5th. Grains struggle to start the week. From the floor of the CME in Chicago, here's Virginia McGathey ...

Virginia McGathey ... "Corn was lower. They were unable to find any follow-through buying off Friday's run-off. Large supplies are still weighing heavy on the futures and there's like a negative sentiment that it could continue for the next three or four months. Wheat was unchanged and it went a little bit lower right towards the end, but the futures still remain relatively firm in spite of the fact that the world wheat glut still exists. We're still on shaky ground right now, but we need some follow through buying to eclipse last week's high, but we're going to do first things first if we can keep it from having any kind of a selloff. So, a lot to watch out for before the report comes in next week, but we're going to have some more volatility in the market and perhaps a little bit choppy sideways movement."
