DTN Closing Livestock Comment 01/19 16:09 Tuesday Left the Livestock Complex Mixed Tuesday roared into the week optimistically, allowing the livestock contracts to trade higher early in the day. However, as the day drew closer to closing the live cattle and lean hog contracts faced some resistance. ShayLe Stewart DTN Livestock Analyst GENERAL COMMENTS: The livestock complex closed mixed Tuesday afternoon. The lean hog market continued to fight pressure while the feeder cattle contracts relished in the opportunity to close higher due to lower corn prices.

March corn is down 5 1/2 cents per bushel and March soybean meal is down $12.70. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 116.26 points and NASDAQ is up 198.68 points.
