Compared to last week: Slaughter steers 20.00 to 23.00 lower, heifers 15.00 to
17.00 lower. Light to moderate demand for steers and heifers this week. Lower
futures contracts and direct trade occuring on Tuesday at 238.00-240.00,
resulted in a much lower market this week. Quality of cattle remains very
attractive and the degree of finish is very high, but packers were able to gain
leverage in the country and lowered their bids to get closer to the Aug Live
Cattle contract. 4 full loads of steers, 6 full loads of heifers, balance part
loads and stock trailer loads.
Slaughter lambs 20.00 to 40.00 lower. Slaughter ewes unevenly steady.
Moderate demand for slaughter lambs. Good to very good demand for feeder
lambs. Moderate to good demand for slaughter ewes. The hot weather is making
livestock transportation tougher and had an effect on the market this week.
