After a week that recorded 3-year U.S. wheat futures highs, wheat futures closed lower on Friday due to profit-taking and spillover weakness from corn and soybeans. USDA estimates for shrinking global wheat production and increasing global wheat consumption limited losses. Mediocre export demand and a strong U.S. dollar continue to limit gains. CBOT September wheat fell 9 cents to $5.47bu, KCBT decreased 7 cents to $5.60/bu and MGEX lost 4 cents to close at $6.09/bu. CBOT September corn declined 12 cents to $3.58/bu and CBOT August soybeans plummeted 40 cents to $8.46/bu.
