DTN COMMENTS: A few bids are on the table in parts of Kansas, and
Nebraska, but they continue to be passed. Current asking prices are
around $225 in the South, and $340-plus in the North. Significant trade
volume could be delayed until later today and/or tomorrow, but packer
inquiries should continue to improve as the day progresses. Beef cutouts
are expected to be mixed with light to moderate box movement.
NOTE: Feedlots are encouraged to call DTN with any cattle sales, at
1-402-461-3561. All sales will be listed anonymously and organized by
state. All live sales are FOB and set for 1-9-day delivery. A weekly
summary from this data will be posted on the Weekly Cattle Sales Reported
to DTN page and will be left up for the entire week for reference
purposes.
