Reporter comment USDA

As filed

There hasn't been a recently reported sale to compare to for a price trend. Demand was good for cattle under 650 lbs that offer more marketing options, light to moderate for heavier weights. Supply was moderate. Cattle futures continue to struggle to find a comfortable trading range with a large amount of volatility in the market, mostly sharply lower. There remains a wide gap between the current April live contract and the cash trade. Some fed cattle traded at 112.00-113.00 on Wednesday, but the board sits at 97 cents.
