Acres Wheat Update: wheat
futures closed lower from 18 to 19-3/4 cents
with losses attnbuted to continued liquida
tion linked to plunging soybean and com
prices. Some short covering early in the ses
sion kept a check on further pnce decay,
with prices holding above the 30 cent lim
its. Some commercial buying also sup
ported with many traders soon anticipating
an end to this correction.
Acres Cattle Update: Live
cattle futures dosed out the day mixed with
feeders mostly higher. Today’s session was
dominated by plunging soybean and com
prices as recent drought spreads were
unwound and speculators liquidated
deferred positions. Strang cash fundamen
tals supported the nearby months with
August feeders closing limit up, and Sep
tember 140 points higher.

futures closed mixed today with the remov
al of recent drought spreads featured as
gram futures plunged to limit downs again
today. Weak cash fundamentals pressured
along with limit down bellies for the 1989
options. New contract lows for the third
straight session added pressure, along with
some positioning in front of the USDA Hog
and Pig report which will be issued tomor
row afternoon.
