The CME component on the kill for - - -

10/1/14, as expected, was up +0.20 to 109.85. With the component up and the VVVs down, the discount of the VVVs to the index component has widened to 3.15. That is still just one good trading day from being the same but I wonder will they match-up with the futures moving or the Index. I'm starting to think the index because the Purchase Index was down yesterday and it has a tendency to trend.

The six-day moving average carcass weight firmed to 213.13# and both packer and non-packer hogs were about a quarter of a pound heavier.

Best wishes,
