DTN Closing Livestock Comment 10/25 15:51 Feeder Cattle, Lean Hogs Keep Momentum Through Friday's End All in all, it was a strong week for the livestock complex as consumer demand was ample and fed cash cattle prices traded higher. ShayLe Stewart DTN Livestock Analyst GENERAL COMMENTS: It was a mixed day for the livestock complex as the live cattle contracts dipped lower, but both the feeder cattle and lean hog contracts were able to maintain their higher position through the day's end. No new cash cattle sales were reported throughout the day as packers did the vast majority of their buying on Thursday. December corn is down 6 1/4 cents per bushel and December soybean meal is down $4.60. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is down 259.96 points.
