    The dollar index is trading near session highs, but this is only weighing on select commodities as half of the commodities in the CRB Commodity Index are higher. Most commodity segments are mixed this morning such as soft, energy, industrial, grains and livestock.


Sugar futures are leading the CRB Index this morning with almost 3% in gains after plunging over 10% during yesterday's trading session. It closed about 9.3% lower.

March crude oil moved into positive territory over four hours ago and hit session highs of $91.67 per barrel just after pit trading began. Crude is currently up 0.8% at $91.24 per barrel.

March natural gas pulled back around the top of the hour, falling back in to negative territory. It's now back near session lows of $4.29 per MMBtu, currently at $4.32 per MMBtu, down 0.3%.
