GENERAL COMMENTS:

   All in all, it was a disappointing day for the livestock complex, as little
support developed and all three livestock markets ended the day lower.
Throughout the day, Southern live cattle were marked at mostly $256 to $257,
but mostly at $257, which is $3.00 lower than last week's weighted average and
Northern dressed cattle traded at mostly $405, which is $5.00 lower than last
week's weighted average. July corn is down 9 cents per bushel and July soybean
meal is down $4.30. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 363.49 points and
the NASDAQ is up 55.15 points.
