Grains and live cattle end mixed, with feeders, hogs and mlk higher.  Bryan Doherty, Total Farm Marketing, says March corn sees a chart breakout Friday above $4.35 and posts a higher weekly close pricing in strong exports and lower ending stocks in Tuesday's WASDE.  Soybeans were steady to higher in the January but also posted a higher weekly close but can the market hold with tariff fears and the large SA crop coming?  Wheat scored a double bottom this week and Doherty is hopeful the market can build on it.  However, live cattle closed mixed despite cash from $190 -$192 and higher boxed beef values as he says the market is anticipating a slow down in demand end of year. Milk futures scored a higher weekly reversal and he thinks the low might be in in that market as well.
