FROM THE TRADING DESK: A bid in cheese early in the spot session later gave way to offers at and below the $2-per-pound mark for blocks, resulting in no trades. Grain markets chopped near opening prices, except wheat. Ukraine has a better-than-expected crop put together, but neighboring countries have banned the country’s wheat.
