Soybeans were steady to mostly modestly higher, with November unable to close over $9. Mexico and China bought new crop U.S. beans, the tenth business day in a row with an announced sale. The sale to Mexico was 250,371 tons and the purchase by China was 132,000 tons, bringing the running total to 3,647,671 tons, mostly new crop to unknown destinations and China. That demand from China continues despite the political tensions. Weekly export inspections were bearish, mainly to China and Mexico.
