Live cattle futures slipped 10 to 30 cents on Thursday, while feeder cattle futures rose $2.40 to $3.20. The CME Feeder Cattle Index rose 19 cents to $330.61 on November 10, and Choice boxed beef was quoted at $360.19.
Weekly federally inspected slaughter was 325,000 head, down about 24,800 from a year earlier.
