Markets To Watch Today

Index: Increasing interest in Commodities has prompted Dow Jones to add 20 single commodity sub-indexes to its existing Commodity Index. A sub-index will be created for each of the 19 commodities which make up the DJ-AIG Commodity Index and Cocoa, which is not currently included, will also be added.

Crude Oil: Crude Oil fell yesterday on expectations of another increase in inventories to be reported this week. Gains in the Unleaded contract limited the losses in Crude. May Crude is trading at $66.31 in the ACCESS market.

Lean Hog: Lean Hog prices dropped to 6-month lows on expectations of lessened demand and adequate supplies. April Lean Hogs closed at 56.30, down 1.85 cents for the session.
