Cattle saw higher prices across the board Tuesday

Good morning, I'm Tom Allen with Market Line Report for April 29, 2015 filling in for Kaydee Gilkey who is a keynote speaker for AgChats in Spokane. Cattle saw higher prices across the board Tuesday. Now from the floor of the CME Group, Todd Horwitz shares his observations of Tuesday's livestock markets.

Horwitz: "We weren't surprised in the cattle market, I'm still bearish, and I haven't changed. I still think cattle markets are going lower. I think there is still is a great sale, in fact in this run it's a better sale which I indicated the other day. You can sell the weight. Can they go higher? Absolutely! But the probability and the likelihood and the speed at which they will go higher is very minimal.
