Live Cattle futures faced significant downward pressure following a bearish cattle on feed report, with the April contract falling 3.73 to 238.27. Despite the decline, underlying fundamentals remained firm amid a 75 year low in beef supply levels. Feeder Cattle futures also trended lower as box prices struggled to find support and market participants monitored the impact of wildfires in grazing regions. Conversely, Lean Hog futures extended a 6 day rally driven by sustained strength in pork demand, with the April contract rising 0.90 to 95.57 and the June contract reaching 109.02. Traders remained mindful of broader commodity sentiment and the ongoing impact of trade policy uncertainty on livestock markets.
