Closing prices on slaughter
steers 1.00-1.50 lower and
heifers 50-75 C lower. Cows
1.00-1.50 lower, instances
2.00 off. Bulls firm to 1.00
higher.
An expanded holiday
supply of slaughter steers
came under heavy down
ward pressure in reflection
of a sharply breaking car
cass trade. Heifers were in
generally better demand
than steers and declines
were less severe. Yield
grade continued to be a
major price-determining
factor, and most interests
were not aggressive for
numbers beyond immediate
requirements. The overall
finish of the steer and heifer
supply was hardly as at
tractive as most recent
weeks and many cattle did
not show to best advantage
as feedlot conditions
deteriorated somewhat as a
result of recent moisture.
Slaughter steers made up
approximately 45 pet and
heifers 29 pet. Cows corn
prices 15 pet and feeders 6
pet.
