This is Bob Larson with the Market Line Report for Friday, November 23rd. Well, no trading on the Thanksgiving holiday, so here's Virginia McGathey from the floor of the CME in Chicago with details from Wednesday....

McGathey ... "Cattle was up. The futures really advanced on technical buying. The traders are really comfortable with that $123 support level as we had come off our recent highs. And, the market looks like its really strong heading into the Thanksgiving weekend and its offering some relief from that big sell-off after that on-feed report last week. Now, what's helping that as well, is the feeder cattle market. So, that follow through buying gave futures a big lift and that means that right now the cattle buying in the north continues to pay higher for the cattle. And, even though supplies are pretty plentiful, it looks like the market is still kind of on the move on the upside."
