DTN Closing Livestock Comment 05/15 15:52
   Cattle Fall Sharply Lower While Hogs Gain Momentum

   More cash cattle trade will need to take place on Friday as the week's
movement has been thin.

GENERAL COMMENTS:

   It was a mixed day for the livestock complex as the cattle contracts endured
an extremely pressuring day, but the lean hog complex closed higher. Not
helping lend direction to the futures complex was the fact that the fed cash
cattle market says prices trade anywhere from $1.00 lower to $2.00 higher. July
corn is up 3 cents per bushel and July soybean meal is up $4.50. The Dow Jones
Industrial Average is up 271.69 points and the NASDAQ is down 34.49 points.
