DTN COMMENTS: The country is fairly quiet this morning with just a few
bids being renewed in parts of Kansas. Asking prices are around $182-plus
in the South, but still not established in the North as of yet.
A light trade developed late yesterday afternoon in Kansas and Texas at
$180 to mostly $181, steady to $1 lower than the prior week's weighted
averages. It will be interesting to see just how many head moved when
summary reports are released later this morning. Packer inquiry should
start to improve in the North at some point today. 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.
