Given that feedlots were able to strengthen the cash market this past week, there's a good chance that they can demand at least steady money if not $1.00 or $2.00 more in next week's trade. The markets will be closed on Friday, December 24th and DTN's comments will resume on Monday, December 27th. Thank you all for your readership, and I pray that you take some time this week to cherish your loved ones and enjoy the holiday spirit. 5-AREA LV STR AVG(FOB)PR&WT: $136.43(1491) HIDE&OFFAL: $13.68 Unchgd CARCASS EQV INDEX CHOICE (600-900#) SELECT (600-900#) #OF HD LIVE BASED $199.82 $184.72 37,817 BOX BASED $250.94 $240.95 40,922 AVE INDEX $225.38 +0.16 $212.83 +0.68 78,739 BEEF CUTOUTS CHOICE (600-900#) SELECT (600-900#) $262.94 +1.08 $252.95 +2.12 61.48 LDS CH CUTS / 15.23 LDS SEL CUTS / 6.96 LDS TRIM / 6.84 LDS GROUND DAILY CHOICE/SELECT SPREAD $ 9.99 TOTAL LOAD COUNT 91 COMPREHENSIVE WEEKLY CUTOUT VALUE: Week ending 12/17 $268.28 -3.09 CUTTER 90% 350# UP C/O: $228.89 -0.11 NAT'L BONELESS BF TRIM: 10.14 lds / Sharply lower on lgt dem & offers 90% TRIM: 0 lds: Wtd Avg $N/A / Not fully established FI KILL(WTD) THR 117(478) WK AGO 122(479) YR AGO 65(414) MIX: WED SH94/CB27 WEEKLY CANADIAN CATTLE IMPORTS.
