# Fed Cattle Prices Slip Again This Fall

> Negotiated fed-steer prices averaged about $216.50 per cwt last week, down $7 from the prior week and $12 from a year earlier; live-cattle futures also fell. Slaughter is down 6.6% year to date, while heavier carcass weights partly offset tighter supplies, and September feedlot placements were 12% below last year for a fourth consecutive monthly decline.

## Why it matters

Seasonal weakness and recent price declines weigh on near-term cattle values, but reduced slaughter and placements point to tighter fed-cattle availability ahead, which could support prices later.
