choppy trading with pressure
stemming from long liquidation on
profit-taking and the unwinding of
some cattle/belly spreads. Futures
were unable to sustain any rallies
with traders expressing concern
that the pit was overbought, and
due for a technical correction. Sup
port came from higher dressed
beef prices and ideas beef cut-out
values would increase. Nearby los
ses were pared by the strong cash
fundamentals. Feeder cattle closed
slightly higher, and just under ses
sion highs.

ACRES NEXT DAY OUT
LOOK: cash - steady.
ACRES HOG UPDATE: Live
hog and pork belly prices settled
mosdy higher on ideas of steady to
higher cash hogs at terminal and
interior hog buying stations tomor
row and cash-connected establish
ment of long positions. Buying
was also prompted by firmer than
expected midday pork product
prices. Bellies continued to be
dominated by technical factors as
prices were lifted by light short
covering and the lifting of cattle/
belly spreads.
