Acres Cattle Update: Live and
feeder cattle again finished mixed in a light
volume, featureless day. Many traders took
to the sidelines early in the session and
awaited today's 7-State USDA Cattle-on-
Feed Report. Some weakness was noted on
reports of fed cattle sales at lower prices
with top steers at $76.50 in Western Kan
sas. Lower boxed beef cut out values along
with a decrease in movement added further
pressure. Feeders were supported by
another -increase in the cash index and
closed from 1S higher on the spot option to
7 lower on the August. Live lost ground on
the front two options 32 and 18 points and
closed out on all but one other option
unchanged. Today’s cattle on feed report
showed cattle on feed at 104%, with place
ments at 101% and marketings at 98%.
These figures were within pre-report esti
mates and were termed neutral to bearish
for futures.
