Written Commentary
MORNING LIVESTOCK FUTURES OUTLOOK
CATTLE COMPLEX
Cash feeders are a little weaker this week, but that isn’t unusual. There are many areas where pastures are too dry, there are areas where feeders were put into feedlots a little sooner where they were on wheat this winter and now producers that also grow crops skip sales while planting take preference.
LEAN HOG COMPLEX
Pork exports were low last week and if they don’t increase over the next couple of months with the increasing hog numbers, pork and hog prices will drop. The increase in exports so far in 2026 has been very supportive to hogs.
