DTN Early Word Grains 09/14 05:50 Crop Prices Mostly Higher as Rail Strike Deadline Approaches December corn was down 1 1/2 cents, November soybeans were up 9 cents and December KC wheat was up 4 cents. Todd Hultman DTN Lead Analyst EARLY GLOBEX PRICES: December corn was down 1 1/2 cents, November soybeans were up 9 cents and December KC wheat was up 4 cents. CME GLOBEX RECAP: Early Tuesday, U.S. stock futures are starting higher, finding light support after Tuesday's higher-than-expected increase in the consumer price index led to a 1,276-point drop on the Dow Jones. Tuesday's report has many wondering if the Federal Reserve will respond with a full-percent hike on September 21 and traders will get to visit the topic again at 7:30 a.m. CDT when the Labor Department releases its report on August producer prices. Grain prices aren't showing much response yet, but traders are likely nervous about the possibility of a rail workers strike later this week.
