DTN COMMENTS: Cattle country remains rather quiet this afternoon, with
bids somewhat elusive. Light business was reported in most areas
yesterday, with live trade in the South at generally $171, $3 lower than
last week's weighted averages. Northern dressed sales were reported at
mostly $271, $4 lower than the prior week's weighted average. Yesterday's
Mandatory totals looked somewhat light, so we may see some more deals
today and/or tomorrow.
Today's slaughter totaled 126,000 head, 5,000 greater than last week, but
even with a year ago. Live cattle futures closed moderately to sharply
lower, off 62 to 135, while feeder contracts ended the day mostly sharply
lower, only the January issue was higher, off 250 to up 12. Beef cutouts
are expected to close mixed, with moderate to good box movement.
