Where will Corn future be in seven days? DataSnack's model says 427 cents/bu (12 Nov 2026); it is 448 cents/bu now. It has no graded forecasts yet; the first is graded on 19 Nov 2026.
DataSnack's read
Corn is following crude oil through ethanol demand, but the link is thin
Corn feeds ethanol and depends on energy inputs, so crude moves reach grain prices. The model's case rests on about 1.53 cents/bu per $1 weekly crude move, with 444 cents/bu in seven days, but it missed by 17.7 against 14.2 for no change.
The numbers
- Corn future now: 448 cents/bu
- DataSnack's model, seven days from now: 427 cents/bu
- Record: It has no graded forecasts yet; the first is graded on 19 Nov 2026.
- Replay on the last 54 days: off by 11.7 against 14.2 for standing still; closer on 30 of 54 days
- Fitted on 248 days of history
How the model works
Corn starts from its latest close, moves with the week's change in the crude oil forecast, then adjusts for the two-week change in the expected December Fed rate, which the scan found the strongest mover of corn.
- Each $1 move in crude over a week moves corn by about 0.148, since energy costs and ethanol demand tie the two. DataSnack's author expected 1.53; the data say 0.148 ± 0.3, fitted on the same days the replay scores. A rough rule.
- Each point the expected December Fed rate rises over two weeks moves corn by about -56.1, as tighter money and a firmer dollar weigh on grain prices. DataSnack's author expected -30.0; the data say -56.1 ± 15, fitted on the same days the replay scores. Fits past data roughly.
Fed by
- Where the December Fed rate ladder lands in a week (its number in seven days): Each point the expected December Fed rate rises over two weeks moves corn by about -56.1, as tighter money and a firmer dollar weigh on grain prices. DataSnack's author expected -30.0; the data say -56.1 ± 15, fitted on the same days the replay scores. Fits past data roughly.
- WTI crude oil future (its number in seven days): Each $1 move in crude over a week moves corn by about 0.148, since energy costs and ethanol demand tie the two. DataSnack's author expected 1.53; the data say 0.148 ± 0.3, fitted on the same days the replay scores. A rough rule.
Feeds
- Coffee future (its number in seven days): Over a week, each 1 cent/bu rise in the corn future's forecast has been followed by coffee moving about -0.247 cents/lb a week later (a negative number means a fall). A rough rule.
