This is Bob Larson with the Market Line Report for Tuesday, July 9th. Tariff fears still a negative in the cattle market. From the floor of the CME in Chicago, here's Virginia McGathey.

McGathey ... "Today, cattle lower. Cash prices did fall and the cattle weights are on the rise. We're entering a seasonal slowdown, kind of a downturn in the volume of meat at this time. And, normally we would get a little bit of a pullback in the market. The boxed beef prices are also a little bit lower. As reported by the USDA report, the feeders were falling. Beef supplies still remain pretty plentiful. There has been also some technical selling so we've got to watch that. Any kind of follow through selling like that could push it down a whole 'nother level. And so, it looks like that there is some worries that the cash prices are also headed a little bit lower and so everyone's giving up some of their positions."
