November 2026 soybean futures were quoted at 1,328.75 US cents per bushel, equivalent to $13.2875, at 08:52:14 UTC (14:22:14 IST) on September 16. Yahoo Finance’s ZS=F observation was 10.00 cents, or 0.76%, above its September 15 daily close of 1,318.75 cents.
Soybeans led this three-crop comparison
Nearby captured observations showed corn up 0.47% and Chicago wheat up 0.55% against their respective dated vendor closes. Soybeans therefore had the largest percentage gain among these three readings. They are different crops and maturity selections, so the comparison describes relative price movement rather than a like-for-like crop substitution trade.
The soybean feed reported a 1,314.75-cent low and a 1,330.00-cent high. The latest quote was just 1.25 cents below the high, versus 14.00 cents above the low. Its positive daily comparison and position near the upper end of the range were consistent at that timestamp, without establishing where the session would finish.
The soybean contract is distinct from its products
CME’s soybean contract rules specify 5,000 bushels for a standard contract and quarter-cent price increments. At the captured value, the notional amount was $66,437.50. The 10-cent gain corresponds to $500 across that quantity, excluding trading expenses.
Whole soybeans are not soybean meal or soybean oil. Calculating a processor’s crush margin requires appropriately matched prices for those products and the relevant conversion assumptions; a rise in beans alone cannot establish whether processing margins improved. Local freight and cash basis also separate futures quotations from an individual buyer’s delivered cost.
The next update should retain the November maturity and check fresh crop, export and processing evidence before assigning a catalyst. AI assistance supported the calculations and source review. The quote is delayed, not an official settlement, and this report provides no investment recommendation.
