packer operating margins and
sluggish retail beef demand? Los
ses 'in the nearby February live
cattle were "pared by firm cash
markets and the futures discount
to cash. Feeders were pressured by
spillover from live cattle and cash
connected selling.

ACRES HOG UPDATE: Live
hog futures closed from 2 points
higher on the August to 35 points
lower on the February and
December options. Volume was
extremely light today with pres
sure linked to wavering cash fun
damentals and positioning in
advance of tomorrow’s USDA
7-State Cattle on Feed report.
Higher than expected interior
receipts yesterday along with pro
jections for more of the same
today lent pressure along with
reports of declining wholesale loin
prices midday. Bellies closed
mostly lower on spillover from
declines in the other livestock pits.
