New showlists appear to be mixed, higher in Texas, and Kansas, but lower in Nebraska/Colorado. Today's slaughter totaled 118,000 head, 11,000 greater than last week, and 3,000 more than a year ago. Cattle futures closed sharply lower with all contracts closing fully in the red, some feeder contracts limit down (live off 250 to 300, feeders off 292 to 450). Beef cutouts are expected to close mixed with generally light box movement.
