Market Closes - July 23, 2014
Posted on Jul 23, 2014Cattle futures closed mixed with price action quite volatile in the 830-10 am period. Boxed beef values backed off some from yesterday’s midday record quotes. Traders are banking long-profits ahead of Friday’s Cattle on Feed Report that’s expected to show July 1st ON-feed inventory at 98.2 pct of year ago. Lean Hog futures dropped the daily price limit of $3.00 as traders worry more about nearby cash markets. USDA’s Cold Storage Report also showed more pork in the freezer than expected. August futures are at a discount to cash prices however.
