December corn hit $5.01 and three quarters on Friday, before falling back to close below the elusive $5 mark. Overall, it was another decent money flow day to end the week in grains but what is holding this corn market back? Ted Seifried with Zaner Ag Hedge joins us to talk funds, demand, E15, money flow across commodities, livestock trade and much more. Find more online at https://www.zaner.com.

Cash cattle trade was red hot this week, anywhere from $10-15 higher in some cases. It was odd though that business was wrapped up by Wednesday……is there something going on we need to watch? Also in lean hogs, reports of pseudorabies in Iowa and Texas may have impacted the end of the week trade action. Joe Kooima with Kooima Kooima Varilek joins us for livestock and grain market analysis to close out the week. Find more online at https://www.kkvtrading.com.
