This is Bob Larson with the Market Line Report for Thursday, June 14th. The grain market continues its roller coaster ways on Wednesday. From the floor of the CME in Chicago, here's Virginia McGathey.

McGathey ... "Wheat also had a pull-back today. It seems that the uptick in U.S. production really put some pressure on the futures. It started to send it lower, double-digits, almost .20 cents at one point. The markets tried to come back and then slipped back down again and it gave back basically all the gains that we had yesterday. The Spring wheat is really starting very, very well. The weather is good so that's also one more thing added on to the pile and that's what's pushing those prices down. On the other side, the Winter wheat is in full harvest right now. So, we don't exactly have the numbers, but we're going to be getting those soon. Perhaps those kind of numbers might help to give us the shot in the arm that we're looking for."
