Cash cattle trading was quiet at midday, with no bids or asking prices reported; last week’s cattle prices were lower than the prior week. Boxed beef was mixed, feeder cattle prices mostly fell in Nebraska, and cash hog prices were lower amid light negotiated purchases and weak buyer support.
Lower cattle and hog cash prices point to near-term pressure on livestock values. Weak hog demand and processors’ ability to meet needs without bidding higher add to the bearish tone.
