# Cattle complex closes lower, hogs rebound

> The US cattle complex closed lower on November 3, 2026, with feeder cattle leading the decline as midterm election worries weighed on the market. No cash cattle trade had occurred that week, and the Hightower Report said yesterday's sharp weakness would likely keep packers from bidding aggressively. Lean hogs rebounded over the same session.

## Why it matters

Weaker feeder and live cattle prices lower the value of cattle going into feedlots and reduce demand for cattle feed. The hog rebound points to firmer demand for hog feed, so feed buyers may see mixed signals across livestock segments.
