LEAN HOGS:
Cash hogs are called fully steady with a possible firm tone for today and into Friday. The end of the week is not a trend setting timeframe for the cash hog market. Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday are the important days to set the cash tone.

We’re picking up a dramatic and critically important change in the tone of the pork product today. ALL CUTS, HAMS, BELLIES, TRIMMINGS, LOINS AND BUTTS ARE TAKING ON A FIRM TO HIGHER TONE. Indeed, spring is finally arriving with mild spring-like weather expected to blanket the country this weekend.

DH, thought this might be of interest, this was in an e-mail I just received!
