Podcast Description
In this episode of Ag Smarter Tech Talk, Andy and Cody break down a technically significant breakout in March bean oil and what it could signal for the broader oilseed complex.
They dig into February Class III milk, where active rolling, rising volume, and cash strength are creating short-term upside—but also setting up a potentially dicey end-of-month trade. The duo also looks outside ag, unpacking sharp stock market volatility tied to tariff uncertainty and geopolitical headlines, and why equity market weakness still matters for dairy and ag demand.
