  • Soybeans Slip on Thursday Amid Mixed Export Sales Data
    June 18, 2026, 10:34 AM EDT. Soybean futures declined by 11 to 12 cents early Thursday following modest gains on Wednesday, when prices faded after the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) export sales report. USDA disclosed 372,000 metric tons (MT) of soybeans sold to unknown destinations, split between old and new crop shipments. Soymeal futures were mostly steady or down slightly, while soy oil futures saw notable losses. Market participants anticipate updated export sales data, with forecasts ranging between 100,000 and 300,000 MT for old crop and 250,000 to 500,000 MT for new crop sales this week. The market pause on Friday for Juneteenth leaves traders focused on Thursday's session. Cash soybean prices edged higher, yet futures fell, reflecting mixed signals in commodity markets.
