Thursday, May 11,1978
Compared with previous
week’s close: closing prices
on slaughter steers were
1.50-2.25 higher and heifers
closed 1.00-1.50 higher. Cows
were 1.50-2.50 higher and
bulls mostly 1.00 higher.
Four day receipts 16,300 as
compared 16,800 previous
week and 18,400 a year ago.
The upward spiral in fed
cattle prices continued dur
ing the current week and
closing price levels were at
the highest peak since June
1975. Demand was good
throughout the period as
most buying interests came
into the week with minimal
live inventories on hand
were in need of cattle for im
mediate requirements.
Weekend rains over the
trade territory again af
fected early movement. But
supplies were well
distributed over the trading
period. The upsurge in live
prices was supported by
sharp advances on carcass
beef at the wholesale level.
The overall finish of' the
steer supply was rather at
tractive with a fairly liberal
percentage Choice and a
moderate volume Choice
and Prime. Much of the
heifer supply was Good to
average Choice. Feeders
buyers were fairly ag
gressive for 950-1050 lb. two
way steers. Slaughter steers
made up approximately
49%, heifers 33%, cows 10%
and feeders 6%.
STEERS: At midweek,
load Choice and Prime 3-4
