Expectations for Cattle on Feed Report

marketinsight — Fri, 21 Jan 2011 10:25:17 +0000

Futures and futures options trading involve substantial risk, and therefore are not suitable for all investors.

The theme for the expectations for the Cattle on Feed report is "More." More than last year in each category. More On Feed, more Placements, & more Marketed.

Check out the spread on the expectations for Placements. That's a 17 point spread, offering the best chance of a surprise number, in my opinion.
