DTN COMMENTS: Cash cattle feeding country is rather slow to start this
morning, following yesterday's light Northern business. Dressed deals had
a range of $340 to $345, $11 to $16 higher than the prior week's weighted
averages, The South remained at a standstill. Packer inquiry should
improve as the day progresses, especially in Kansas and Texas where
cattle movement has been minimal. At this point, no bids have been
renewed. Asking prices are around $225-plus in the South, and $346-plus
in the North. Beef cutouts are expected to be lower 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.
