ACRES HOG UPDATE: Live
hog futures closed mostly higher
today, gaining on ideas that the
market had become oversold dur
ing the stock market crisis and by
the return of traders who had offset
positions during the recent crunch.
Further support came from ideas
that interior movement would soon
drop off in light of ligher runs yes
terday. Pork bellies settled sharply
higher to limit up this afternoon on
a late short covering rally.
