Tues., July 9, 2019 - Packer Day

341 slaughter cattle sold today including 217 steers and heifers that sold on a higher market resulting in a 116.50 top!  Buyers remain wary of marginal finished cattle because of a 20.00 plus select discount.  Look for that trend to continue for several more weeks.

 

Cows & bulls sold mostly 2.00 lower.
