CHICAGO, Nov. 16 (Xinhua) -- Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) agricultural commodities opened mixed on Thursday, as grains prices continued to be stuck in a trading range due to little market-moving news.
January soybeans were up 5.5 cents at 9.7325 U.S. dollars per bushel as of 1630 GMT in the morning trading, December corn was down 1.75 cents at 3.365 dollars, while December wheat was up 1.5 cents at 4.215 dollars.
As for international markets, Egypt's General Authority For Supply Commodities is tendering for world wheat for early 2018 shipment and received six offers from exporters. The lowest price is 194.55 dollars per tonne, which is up about 2 dollars from their tender of last week.
Russian FOB wheat prices are down 1 to 1.5 dollars per tonne, so the exporters added 3 to 3.5 dollars per tonne to account for phytosanitary uncertainty regarding ergot and other wheat quality specs. Enditem
