SLAUGHTER CATTLE 250 327 260
FEEDER CATTLE 1016 159 1123
Compared to the last special two weeks ago, steers weighing 550-700 lbs sold
steady to firm, with 7 weight steers trading 5.00-10.00 lower and a pot load of
steers weighing 806 lb traded steady. Heifer calves weighing 400-450 lbs sold
steady, 5 weight heifers traded mostly 5.00-10.00 lower and over 600 lbs were
lightly tested. Demand was good on a moderate offering. Despite CME Cattle
futures selling off with sharp losses on Thursday and Friday (Feeder Cattle
limit down on Thursday) the market held up very well. Cattle on Feed Report
was released Friday afternoon with On Feed at 102 percent; Placements were
higher than expected at 106 percent and Marketings came in at 90 percent. COF
report seems to be confirming what cattle futures have been telling for the
last couple of days- a bearish report was coming. Slaughter cattle and
slaughter cows all sold fully steady.
