DTN Ag Host Midday Livestock

Cattle markets have rallied higher through the morning with active gains seen in both live cattle and feeder cattle futures Monday following the weekend break. The increased volatility over the past couple of weeks seems to have added fuel to the fire, but extreme volatility of this nature seems to create more market shifts than solve any long-term market issues. December corn is up at $4.283 and December soybean meal is up $1.60 at $318.7. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 21.01 at 47,008.11.
