At the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, live cattle were up and feeders were mostly higher, watching the distribution of this week’s showlist. The modestly higher midday boxed beef provided some support, while the higher move in corn limited gains for feeders. December live was up $.90 at $113.05 and February was $.80 higher at $115.77. January feeders were $.07 higher at $141 and March was up $.27 at $142.60.
Direct cash cattle trade has been slow to start off the week.
