DTN Closing Livestock Comment 12/24 12:41 Traders Dabble in Livestock Complex Vaguely Ahead of Tuesday's Early Close When the markets reopen after Christmas on Thursday, packer interest in the cash cattle market is expected to be noted rather soon as they didn't get many cattle bought last week. ShayLe Stewart DTN Livestock Analyst GENERAL COMMENTS: The livestock complex puttered through Tuesday's early close as traders paid the market little attention throughout the day. A single bid of $190 was offered in Kansas, but no cattle have sold just yet. March corn is up 3/4 cent per bushel and March soybean meal is up $3.00. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 390.08 points.
