While it is looking like the bulk of transactions are done for the week, a little cleanup is not out of the question tomorrow. So far this week Southern live deals have been marked at mostly $175, compared with last week's weighted averages that is fully steady in Texas, but $1 lower in Kansas. Northern dressed trade has been at mostly $288, $2 lower than the prior week's weighted averages. 5-AREA LV STR AVG(FOB)PR&WT: $177.62(1414) HIDE&OFFAL: $12.86 +0.01 CARCASS EQV INDEX CHOICE (600-900#) SELECT (600-900#) HEAD SUPPLY (Live) $271.03 $255.92 69,378 DEMAND (Box) $294.99 $276.74 37,844 INDEX VALUE $283.01 -0.18 $266.33 -2.08 107,222 BEEF CUTOUTS CHOICE (600-900#) SELECT (600-900#) $306.99 +1.07 $288.74 -2.72 68.06 LDS CH CUTS / 17.69 LDS SEL CUTS / 4.28 LDS TRIM / 10.05 LDS GROUND DAILY CHOICE/SELECT SPREAD $18.25 TOTAL LOAD COUNT 100 COMPREHENSIVE WEEKLY CUTOUT VALUE: Week ending 04/14 $294.34 +7.97 CUTTER 90% 350# UP C/O: $217.19 -3.61 NAT'L BONELESS BF TRIM: 22.07 lds / Shrply hr on gd dem & lt offers 90% TRIM: 10 lds: Wtd Avg: $273.46 / Sharply lower FI KILL(WTD) THU 128(502) WK AGO 125(489) YR AGO 121(482) MIX: WED SH97/CB28 WEEKLY CANADIAN CATTLE IMPORTS.
