USDA data showed uneven negotiated cash cattle trade across major feeding regions on Thursday, with total reported volume of 53,827 head. Southern live purchases were mostly $218 per hundredweight, down $7 from the prior week; prices also declined in Nebraska and the Western Cornbelt.
Lower negotiated cash prices, particularly in the South, indicate weaker near-term bids from packers and pressure cattle values. The declines across several regions suggest the weakness is not limited to one market.
