Weekly 51 - Cattle -
Prices on slaughter steers
through midweek were
3.00-3.50 lower and heifers
finished 2.50-3.00 off. Cows
were 1.50-2.50 lower and
bulls closed weak to 1.00
lower.
Four day receipts 12,400,
last week 12,500, a year ago
-16,500.
The fed cattle trade came
under severe downward
pressure in a bearish, selec
tive trade as buying in
terests made a determined
effort to bring live prices in
line with a downward plung
ing carcass trade. Most
slaughterers were not ag
gressive for maximum
numbers in view of the con
tinued unfavorable cut-out
ratio, and one major interest
was out of the market for the
entire week. The current
downturn marked the third
time in four weeks that clos
ing prices were lower than
the previous week with net
declines of some 4.50-5.25.
Slaughter steers made up
-approximately 49 pet with a x
fairly liberal percentage
choice. Heifers 33 pet, much
of supply good to average
choice. Cows comprised 12
pet and feeders 4 pet.
