US MIDDAY: wheat, corn up; soya down

Chicago Board of Trade grain and soy complex trends at 10:15 am CDT (1515 GMT) Thursday. September wheat up 15-1/4 cents at $6.94 a bushel; December up 16 at $7.27. Technical short-covering bounce after two-day sell-off; news of US HRW wheat sales adds support.

September corn up 2-1/2 cents at $4.50 per bushel; December up 2-1/2 at $4.65. September soyabeans down 3-1/4 cents at $10.38 per bushel, November down 1-3/4 at $10.47.
