SLAUGHTER CATTLE 87 75 131
REPLACEMENT CATTLE 40 40 100
FEEDER CATTLE 1017 712 962
Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers 5.00-15.00 lower with best demand on
high quality weaned steers near 475 lbs. Feeder heifers under 450 lbs steady to
5.00 higher, over 450 lbs 5.00-10.00 lower. Slaughter cows steady. Demand
moderate. Supply moderate. Several consignments of very good quality, mostly
weaned calves this week. Administration talk of increasing beef imports
spooked the market sending feeder futures sharply lower with a reaction similar
to what we saw last fall and making buyers more cautious than we've seen for a
while. Meanwhile very tight numbers have helped push fed cattle to all-time
highs although there is some concern that gas prices may be holding back beef
cutout values.
