# Big Sell Off of Live Cattle - Cattle Southeast AgNET

> Live and feeder cattle sold off sharply late last week, with many attributing it to month-end selling. A strike at a Greeley, Colorado plant is possible, and slowdowns at other plants, including Tyson, are reducing beef supply. Analysts see April live cattle support near 228-230 and April feeders near 338-340.

## Why it matters

Reduced plant throughput tightens beef supply, which could support cattle prices. Month-end liquidation and the energy trade tied to the Iran conflict add near-term volatility.
