Wheat prices rose sharply Wednesday as concerns mounted about the fallout from what is widely expected to be a poor harvest. Gold prices fell yesterday despite having risen in recent seccion as U.S. Treasury yields fell. Lower bond yields often give support to gold prices because both are regarded as areas of shelter. Among other commodities, oil and gas declined sharply after weekly domestic inventory figures showed a much stronger build in domestic inventories than investors had expected.
