Why Chicago wheat is followed
Chicago wheat is a soft red winter wheat future affected by crop weather, Black Sea trade, tenders and competing wheat classes. For Chicago wheat, the quoted move captures a defined slice of market activity; it cannot by itself establish the performance of an investor’s portfolio or physical transaction. The futures level can still differ from a consumer, wholesale cash or producer price.
