Live and feeder cattle closed mixed on the CME, with October live down $0.47 to $231.32 and October feeders down $0.80 to $356.20. Boxed beef lost ground, with Choice down $0.75 to $370.68, and direct cash cattle trade was quiet at the start of the week.
Falling boxed beef suggests softer domestic beef demand, which tends to pressure live and feeder cattle prices in the near term.
