AgHost Livestock Close

The livestock contracts ended the day lower as traders simply weren’t willing to advance the contracts without first seeing greater fundamental support. Showlists this week are lighter in Texas, but mostly steady in Kansas, Nebraska and Colorado. July corn is up 21 1/4 cents per bushel and July soybean meal is up $0.20. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 159.95 points and the NASDAQ is down 134.41 points.
