New York
Thursday, November 9
Compared with Wednesday,
steer and heifer beef 50c to $1.50
lower except good steer car
casses steady. Veal and calf
weak, lamb mostly $1 lower, pork
loins, butts and spareribs steady,
picnics 50c lower and hams
steady to $2 higher.
Supplies generally exceeding
spot demand aside from Good
grade steer beef, pork loins and
beef briskets. Beef rounds and
chucks under pressure and
quoted $1 to $2 lower but price not
inducing improved purchase
power as obviously bad weather
had curtailed retail outlet.
