# Where will Corn future be in seven days?

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.
