Posted on Nov 24, 2014
CBOT futures are mixed with corn, beans and meal posting losses while wheat is barely higher on a better-than-expected weekly export inspections report this morning. Downside pressure is coming from favorable South American weather and a disappointing corn inspections report.

Cattle futures are mostly lower although the December LC contract hit another contract high today. Fed Cattle price was up a dollar/cwt on Friday. Choice Beef is up 1.18 to 256.40 and Select is up .25 to 242.18. Friday’s Cattle on Feed Report showed heavier placements than expected resulting in a larger on-feed number for November 1st at 100.5% of year ago.

Lean Hog futures are trading strongly higher in the nearby contracts on firm cash markets and Friday’s Cold Storage Report that showed pork inventories down 7% from a year ago and down 3.7% from the end of September. At midday, FOB Plant Pork up .26 at 93.65/cwt.
