GENERAL COMMENTS:

   It was a mixed day for the livestock complex as the cattle contracts rallied
aggressively but the lean hog contracts drifted lower. New showlists appear to
be mixed, higher in Texas, and Nebraska/Colorado, but lower in Kansas. July
corn is up 3 cents per bushel and July soybean meal is up $0.20. The Dow Jones
Industrial Average is up 275.50 points and the NASDAQ is up 96.27 points.
