Thursday, March 27
Report supplied by USDA
Trading continued slow on
steers and heifers again this
week. Slaughter steers
closed at the middle of the
week mostly 1.00, instances
1.50 lower than Wednesday a
week ago. Slaughter heifers
fully .50 to 1.00 lower. Cows
and bulls 1.00 lower.
Receipts totaled about 2500
this week, 2818 a week ago,
and 3527 a year ago. The
failure of the beef trade to
show any turnaround in
activity forced prices lower
again this week despite the
continued reduction in
market cattle receipts.
