GENERAL COMMENTS:

   The cattle complex had another phenomenal day where massive gains were seen
as traders continue to bullishly push the contracts higher upon seeing the
immense support in the market's long-term outlook. Still no cash cattle trade
developed. December corn is up 2 1/4 cents per bushel and December soybean meal
is up $0.20. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 202.88 points and the
NASDAQ is down 172.91 points.
