I'm Matt Rice with the Market Line Report for Jan 27th. Livestock seeing higher prices across the board in both live and feeder cattle, could be a good place to buy, according to Todd Horwitz. Here's Todd as his explains the livestock market from the floor of the CME in Chicago.

Horwitz- "Tuesday's Livestock, prices higher across the board. I think we can see evidence that the levels we talked about the last couple of weeks are going to hold. We saw the big dip down, short covering rally and pull back as we talked about last week. Probably a good spot to buy. Now, I think you look at live cattle the $1.30 area I think that's a great place to jump in. Again, I think if you're an owner obviously you want to see higher prices. I think that $1.30 is a nice level."
