AgHost Livestock Close

Although some of the live cattle contracts were pressured to trade lower earlier Tuesday, by the afternoon’s close most of the live cattle contracts closed higher, along with the feeder cattle and lean hog contracts too. Still no cash cattle trade has developed. March corn is up 1/4 cent per bushel and May soybean meal is up $1.90. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 378.64 points and NASDAQ is up 243.33 points.
