"Shootin' the Bull" on video today!
“Shootin’ The Bull”
End of Day Market Recap
by Christopher Swift
4/16/2024
Live Cattle:
Today's livestock comment is taped: Listen HERE.
Feeder Cattle:
Hogs:
Corn:
Grains and oilseeds were lower and are expected to continue lower.
Energy:
Energy has struggled all day to try to get plus, and although has a couple of times, is down a few cents at the close. I expect energy prices to continue higher.
Bonds:
Bonds were lower again today. The selling is more than interesting due to equities not having done much and the US dollar inordinately strong. Nonetheless, I continue to expect bonds to move higher, even though I remain wrong at the moment.
