Walter and Steve,

in futures lingo, a give-up is an order executed by one broker for the
customer of another broker. Also refers to the part of the commission the
first broker receives from the second broker.

Hope this helps.

Michael

Walter,

I can only asssume, and that's dangerous, that "give-ups for cash positions"
means abandoning futures positions and holding the grain .... or selling the
grain (give-ups) at the terminal or elevator to raise cash.  Either scenario
would put pressure on the market.  I don't follow the commentary or the MGE
markets.  Minnestoans mix too much professional wrestling with politics
(although, I understand the common bound between the two professions).

I'm sure my "speculation" on the matter doesn't help.  Are you considering
doing any long wheat/short corn for the next few months?  I about to put on
bunches and bunches.
