Starting from Soybeans, we walked the supply graph hop by hop to the goods you buy and the companies you own. Each step is the engine’s reasoning, scored for confidence and cited where a source backs it.
First impact
Soybean Meal (Animal Feed Protein) →supply upADM's added crush capacity increases soybean meal availability, and animal feed depends critically on soybean meal as an input, so feed supply should improve.
94% confidenceSoybeans →supply upADM's crush-capacity expansion increases soybean processing throughput, directly raising vegetable oil output; the soybeans→cooking oils edge is strong and critical.
93% confidenceRapeseed / canola seed →supply upHigher crush capacity directly lifts vegetable-oil output, so this input-to-output edge points to more cooking-oils supply.
Hop 2
Animal feed →supply upSoybean Meal (Animal Feed Protein)
ADM's crush expansion increases soybean meal supply for feed markets, and animal feed depends heavily on this critical input.
96% confidenceCooking oils →Prices riseMore cooking-oil/crush output raises demand for soybeans, the critical primary feedstock here, so soybean prices should rise.
86% confidenceCargill, Incorporated →supply upSoybean Oil (Biodiesel Feedstock)
ADM's added crush capacity should increase market availability of soybean oil, easing Cargill's biodiesel-feedstock procurement.
Hop 3
Soybean Meal (Swine Feed — Primary Protein) →supply upSoybean meal is a critical swine-feed input, so ADM's added crush capacity that raises meal supply supports downstream pork production.
89% confidenceVegetable Oil (Soybean/Canola, for Dressings/Mayo) →supply upCondiments, sauces & dressings
More soybean/canola oil lowers the input constraint for condiments, sauces and dressings, making that category easier to supply.
77% confidenceHexane (extraction solvent) →Stands to benefitHop 4
Sinopec (China Petrochemical Corp.) →Prices riseADM's crush expansion increases demand for extraction solvent hexane, and Sinopec's 22% supply share with only moderate substitutability suggests tighter hexane pricing.
77% confidenceShell Chemicals (LyondellBasell JV at Deer Park) →Prices riseADM's added crush capacity implies more oilseed processing and therefore more demand for hexane as an extraction solvent, which should push hexane prices up; the effect is moderate because this dependency is only a 10% share and substitutes exist.
67% confidenceChevron Phillips Chemical →Prices rise
