US MIDDAY: wheat down on moderate fund selling

25 Aug, 2005

Wheat futures at the Chicago Board of Trade were lower at midmorning on Wednesday, weighed by light to moderate fund selling amid a lack of supportive news, traders said.
Pressure also stemmed from the wheat options pit, where FC Stone bought 1,800 December $3.10 puts, traders said.
As of 11:05 am CDT (1605 GMT), September wheat was down 4 cents at $3.13-1/4 per bushel, with December down 3-3/4 at $3.27-3/4.
