DTN Early Word Grains 11/21 05:53 Grains Quiet, Mixed Ahead of Thanksgiving Break December corn was up 1/2 cent, November soybeans were down 3 cents, and December KC wheat was unchanged. Tregg Cronin DTN Contributing Analyst Pre-5:00 a.m. CME Globex: December corn was up 1/2 cent, November soybeans were down 3 cents, and December KC wheat was unchanged. CME Globex Recap: The equity rout continued Tuesday around the globe but looks to stabilize heading into the Thanksgiving holiday. Suddenly, the U.S. equity picture is turning just as sour as the Chinese one. That could play an interesting role in the trade talks between the two countries. Grains are quietly mixed before the break with holiday mode setting in hard after Thursday. Regular close today with markets reopening Friday morning for a shortened session. Happy Thanksgiving!
