Pro Farmer: After The Bell Hog Recap

Lean hog futures ended the day steady to slightly lower and posted slight losses for the week. February hog futures ended the week at about a $3 premium to the cash index. All eyes will be on the pork cutout market next week after prices and movement surged late this week. If this trend continues, it would bolster packer demand for cash hogs. Early expectations are for steady cash hog bids to start next week, although some packers are in need of supplies to fill a full kill schedule.
