Tuesday, July 25, 2017 - Packer Day

Even though the fed market was 2.50 lower than last week, it was very evident that all 3 buyers were interested in accumulating some numbers to fill their orders.  today's top was 122.00 on both steers & heifers.  Last Friday's bearish cattle reports were the main culprit.

Slaughter cows & bulls were active and sold 2.00 higher.  Because of the local County Fair, there will be no sale this Thursday!
