Cattle futures closed lower ahead of the USDA Cattle on Feed report, with analysts expecting higher placements from drought-driven feeder movement. A union-related lockout at the Cargill plant in Fort Morgan, Colorado, added pressure.
Cash trade was about 30,000 head Thursday, with live steers at $258-261.
A packing plant lockout reduces slaughter capacity and slows fed cattle marketings, which weighs on cash and futures prices. Higher expected placements also add to feedlot supplies, adding bearish pressure on feeder cattle.
