Chicago soybeans fall 0.63%, lean hogs jump 4.58%

The split between grains and livestock is the real signal here: soybeans, corn and wheat all drifted lower together, while hogs and cattle moved sharply higher, pointing to diverging drivers rather than one broad commodity move. Cocoa's drop stands apart entirely, a reminder that softs are trading on their own supply story. For anyone tracking ag exposure, the gap between feed-grain weakness and livestock strength is the tension worth watching — whether that spread persists or converges is the open question.
