LIVE CATTLE: June
Cattle are close to $1.00 lower due to outside influence. Resistance will now be $91.25 on any bounces today. Closing back above this area would signal a move back up to $92.30. Holding below $91.25 the market could continue to erode with the stock market and eventually land in an area of longer term support at $88.45 before finding solid buying. On a standalone basis the fundamentals of the market aren't as bearish as the futures market it predicting at this point.
Support: 90.05 & 89.40 Resistance: 90.35 & 91.25 Long Term Trend: Down below 91.40 Short Term Trend: Down below 92.30 Upper Momentum: 95.77 Lower Momentum: 91.57
FEEDER CATTLE: Aug
Aug feeders held the 100 day moving average yesterday, but are currently trading below this area and could continue to $106.90 near term. On bounces the market will run into resistance at $109.70 and would need to close back above $110.32 in order to stop any selling pressure. Closing below $106.90 the market could trigger another round of selling that would take the market down into the $104.20 area.
Support: 107.57 & 106.90 Resistance: 109.70 & 110.32 Long Term Trend: Down below 110.60 Short Term Trend: Down below 110.32 Upper Momentum: 115.07 Lower Momentum: 110.40
CORN: July
Corn has pulled back overnight after a nice three day rally. At 370 the market is in the top of the current trading range and would need to see a solid close above 373 in order to move back up into the 380 area. Today moving back below 364 could bring out the bears and push the market down to 360. Below 360 another run at 350 is likely.
Support: 368, 364, & 360 Resistance: 370, 373 & 377 Long Term Trend: Down below 368 Short Term Trend: Down below 365 Upper Momentum: 375 Lower Momentum: 360
Hogs: July
The hog market has felt like it was trying to stabilize over the last two sessions. Overnight trade has the market under pressure and if it continues a move back down to $80.82 is possible. The market is most likely going to open below $82.35 which will become resistance, so the market needs to move back above this level before attracting any new buying. If this was to be the case then the next upside target would be in the $83.80 area. Holding below $82.35 will keep the market on the defensive and trading below $80.82 on a closing basis would add to the bearishness.
Support: 81.45 & 80.82 Resistance: 82.35 & 82.70 Long Term Trend: Down below 82.30 Short Term Trend: Down below 82.30 Upper Momentum: 85.22 Lower Momentum: 82.10
