Russia-Ukraine War threatens wheat supply, jolts prices

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine threatens a big portion of the world’s wheat supply and has sent prices on a dizzying ride to new highs as well as the sharpest weekly drop in years.

Wheat stockpiles were already running low and prices were the highest in years thanks to two years of poor growing weather when Russia’s attack jammed up Black Sea trading and endangered nearly a third of the world’s exports. The invasion prompted fears of food shortages in countries fed with imported grain and pushed prices to new highs.

Milling wheat in Paris and the most-traded U.S. futures contract, for soft red winter wheat delivered to Chicago, notched record prices early in the week. Then they plunged. Chicago futures ended the week 8.5% lower, the worst weekly performance since 2014 when wheat was coming down from a drought-induced spike. French markets, as well as on-the-spot trading in St. Louis and Kansas City, followed similar arcs.

Texas driller produces US oil industry 'miracle'

In the vast Permian Basin located in western Texas, oil isn’t hard to come by according to producer and drilling company Tall City Exploration.

With record-high gas prices and the market’s need for more supply, Tall City CEO Michael Oestmann says the company is working to increase daily production from 10,000 barrels to 20,000 by the end of the year.

"It's right here and it's good for America," Oestmann told FOX Business’ Lauren Simonetti. "It creates American jobs. "While Tall City’s private land can receive drilling permits in as quickly as 10 days, some of their Permian Basin neighbors on federal land are waiting anywhere from 9 to 12 months.

Oil prices fall in early trading as Chinese city of Shenzhen goes into COVID lockdown

Oil prices are lower, likely weighed by the latest COVID-19 developments in China, ING said.

"The rising number of cases has seen the city of Shenzhen go into lockdown," the Dutch bank pointed out. "This will raise concern over the potential hit to demand. But also importantly, it suggests that China is not ready to let go of its zero-COVID policy," it says.

ING also noted ICE Brent speculators decreased their net long positions last week, signaling increased risk-aversion in the oil futures market. 

Early Monday morning, April Brent retreated 2.8% to $109.49 per barrel, while WTI declined 2.9% to $106.18 per barrel, Dow Jones Newswires reported.

Gold appeal lessened as war in Ukraine drags on

Gold prices declined in early Asian trading as hopes for progress in the Russia-Ukraine talks diminish safe-haven appeal of the precious metal, Dow Jones Newswires reported.

Russian President Putin noted there are "certain positive shifts" in negotiations with Ukraine, Oanda says. 

While Putin's comments are likely giving market participants hope that cease-fire talks are heading in the right direction, economic growth concerns are unlikely to go away anytime soon, hence gold's pullback should be limited, Oanda added. 

Spot gold fell 0.8% to $1,972.78 per ounce, the report said.
