Live Cattle futures hold value while Lean Hogs slide. 9/23/26

Virginia McGathey reviews the livestock markets, noting that Live Cattle futures remain firm and trade sideways as they hold a discount to the cash market. Feeder Cattle futures are seeing recent strength, clawing back last week's declines as higher box prices provide underlying support. Meanwhile, Lean Hog futures face downward pressure from large supply volumes that exceed demand, pushing the December contract below the $70 mark. McGathey also details the latest CVOL Index readings across the livestock complex.
