Even though the market continues to slide, the cash market is still several dollars higher than the futures.  Fed cattle in our area are very current as a good portion of the steers and heifers are being sold with very marginal finish!  Top today was 123.75 compared to 126.75 two weeks ago!

Cull cows sold steady to 2.00 higher with bulls steady to weak!
