SEE FRIDAY'S DAILY DIRECT SLAUGHTER CATTLE 
NEGOTIATED PURCHASES SUMMARIES BELOW

DTN COMMENT:  Formula totals for last week where higher in all major feeding 
areas: KS 81,790(+15,216), NE 48,728(+12,055), TX 81,705(+19,792). Total 
trade volume was also higher in all major feeding areas:  KS 90,635(+16,338), 
NE 68,878(+18,701), TX 86,816(+20,518). New showlists appear to be mixed, 
higher in Kansas, but lower in Texas, and Nebraska/Colorado. Bids and asking 
prices have yet to be established, and significant trade volume will likely 
be delayed until the second half of the week.

Beef cutouts were lower at midday (Choice 378.06 -0.58, Select 365.91 -0.58), 
with light box movement (28.99 lds of choice cuts, 11.27 lds of select cuts, 
6.16 lds of trim, and 7.27 lds of ground). Cattle futures closed sharply lower 
on both live (off 67 to 292) and feeder (362 to 585) contracts, far deferred 
issues fared somewhat better than nearbys.  Today's slaughter totaled 112,000 
head, 2,000 less than the prior week, and 5,000 below a year ago.
