Compared to last Thursday, not enough stocker or feeder this week for accurate trends. Most offerings today where small bunches and singles. Feeder cattle futures fell $0.80 to $1.30 on Thursday with Jan rolling off the board at $158.92 to be settled against the index tomorrow. The CME Feeder Cattle Index for 1/26 was $159.05, down by another 45 cents. Slaughter cows 4.00-9.00 higher as packers pursued numbers for harvest. Not enough slaughter bulls this week for accurate trends, Trade active with good demand. Export Sales data from the week that ended 1/20 showed 14,273 MT of beef was booked. That was up 11% wk/wk, but was just half of the same week last year. South Korea and Japan were the week’s top buyers.
