Thursday. June 5
Report supplied by USDA
Midweek prices" on
Slaughter Steers were weak
to 50 lower. Heifers closed
25-50 lower. Cows were 50-
1.00 higher and bulls steady.
Four day receipts this
week 14,400, last week 11,900,
a year ago 13,800.
The fed cattle trade
followed a rather uneven
course as buyers sought to
maintain an acceptable ratio
between live prices and
erratic realizations. A firm
tone prevailed Monday, but
live prices were forced
downward by a sharply
breaking carcass trade on
Tuesday; however, much of
this downturn was regamed
on a small midweek supply
as carcass trading again
trended upward. Since
recovery from the low point
in early April, prices have
shown only mild net change
over the past seven week
period, with week to week
variations often not more
than 25-50 cents cwt. The
overall finish this week was
still rather attractive with a
liberal percentage Choice
and a moderate volume
Choice and Prime. Slaughter
steers made up ap
proximately 48 pet of the
week’s total and Heifers 36
pet. Cows comprised 11 pet.
and feeders 3 pet.
