At the Chicago

Mercantile Exchange, both live and feeder cattle futures ended the day lower on

follow-through selling and concerns about the lackluster summer demand.  August live cattle closed $.27 lower at

$95.12 and October live cattle closed $.27 lower at $98.57.  August feeder cattle closed $.80 lower at

$131.75 and September feeder cattle closed $.80 lower at $133.07. 

There was a very light direct cash cattle trade to start the week.  Dressed deals in Nebraska were reported at $152 to $155 dressed, but it’s still too early for that to set the trend for the week.
