Tuesday, September 5, 2017 - Packer Day

It was a light run at Fairview Sale Barn because of the long holiday weekend.  The run consisted of 83 fed cattle, 52 slaughter cows and five bulls.  The over-all market was lower as expected with no relief from the CBOT.

Today's top was $111.75, a full dollar lower.  Cows were steady to weak.
