Canola values are once again getting too high

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm April 21, 2022

There’s increasingly little room for canola to manoeuvre as the gap between the old-crop months and the new-crop contracts continues to narrow. One of two avenues await: either canola prices fall hard or, in a highly unlikely event, product prices suddenly spike. Canola pushed ahead of other edible oils and is now overvalued and in[...]

Canola's wild ride ends up near where it started

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm March 24, 2022

Despite all the volatility in the markets over the last seven days, ICE Futures canola values ended up pretty much where they started. On March 10, the nearby May canola contract closed at $1,130.70 per tonne; a week later it finished at $1,130.20. It was a similar story for the July contract, at $1,096.40 per[...]

Multiple factors push canola prices upward

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm April 22, 2021

There was little doubt canola was to have been on the upswing for most of this week. Signs of forthcoming gains were evident on April 9 as prices moved well off of their lows, though canola contracts still finished that Friday with small declines. A number of factors have combined to rally canola this week.[...]

‘Hamburger season’ around the corner

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm April 14, 2022

Prices at the Ashern Auction mart were “fully steady” at their April 6 sale, according to manager Kirk Kiesman. He noted prices have remained as such for the last three to four weeks, seeing little prospect of changing any time soon. “We’re getting close to ‘hamburger season’ on the cows and bulls,” Kiesman said, which[...]

More cattle auction markets reopen next week

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm January 13, 2023

More Manitoba cattle auctions resume weekly sales as January progresses. Gladstone Auction Mart auctioneer Tyler Slawinski said it’s likely the cattle heading to sales across the province won’t be as numerous as they were during the fall run. “I don’t think there will be a big rush in cattle moving. Guys are going to move[...]

Weather pulling canola prices either way

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm June 17, 2021

As weather pandered to both sides of the markets this week, there wasn’t much change to canola values. There was something of a balancing act between dry conditions continuing to underpin values and significant rainfall on the Prairies providing pressure. For example, the November contract on June 4 closed at $763.60 per tonne, gaining nearly[...]

Fall cattle run numbers increase

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm September 30, 2022

The fall run is in full swing and the number of cattle heading to Manitoba’s eight livestock auctions continues to increase. “It’s going to be as busy as it ever is,” said Allan Munroe of Killarney Auction Mart, which had a sale Sept. 19 with 1,120 head. That’s up from 516 the previous week. Overall, there were[...]

Not the best week for canola

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm January 20, 2022

Old-crop canola ran into a tough week on ICE Futures with the nearby March contract retreating by more than $50 per tonne. Also, the May 2022 contract gave up over $40 per tonne while new-crop November remained relatively firm. Part of this pullback was that old-crop canola simply became too expensive when compared to other[...]

Canola market dependent on other edible oils

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm February 17, 2022

There isn’t much to prop up canola values — at least if it were to show some independent strength. Traders and analysts have pointed out that old-crop canola has pretty much run its course. As we plow through winter with eyes turning to spring, attention is beginning to shift away from the old-crop months to[...]

Canola remains the follower

By Glen Hallick - MarketsFarm August 26, 2021

Canola futures took a tumble at the end of this week as prices on the Chicago soy complex pulled back, with declines in European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil adding to the mix. The Canadian oilseed demonstrated some independent strength as price rationing propelled values higher earlier in the week, but weakness in the other[...]
