* The market is positioning itself ahead of the reports. Having seen strong gains in the previous session, it's now entering a bit of a consolidation phase, said Jack Scoville, vice president at Chicago-based Price Futures Group.
* "I'm actually expecting a fairly neutral report... the market is acting like it's trying to put a bottom in right now, so we could be a little higher."
* Focus will be on the USDA's World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) report due at 12:00 p.m. ET. EXP/COT
