Hog futures - With cash prices and pork cutout values lower, it's unsurprising that the hog futures are trading lower as well. The weakness in the market's fundamentals, mixed with the continued pressure being seen in the futures complex, has gravely affected the complex today as the contracts are all trading $1.00 to $2.00 lower. It's highly unlikely that the market's direction will improve ahead of today's close.
