Live Cattle Futures Reach New Highs Amid Tight Supplies

Live Cattle futures reached new contract highs today as tight supplies and feed shortages continued to provide market support. Feeder Cattle futures also saw gains, hitting a 6-month high due to the impact of wildfires and extreme dryness on herd sizes. Meanwhile, Lean Hog futures remained steady with technical buying interest, as high beef prices ahead of the long weekend are anticipated to drive up pork demand.
