A quiet Friday for direct cash cattle trade activity. It looks like the bulk of the week’s business has wrapped up. Asking prices for cattle left on showlists are around $138 live in the South and $220 dressed in the North. There could be a little cleanup trade trickle in this afternoon, but it isn’t likely. . So far this week dressed deals in the North have been at mostly $218, fully steady with last week’s weighted averages.
