A few asking prices were noted in parts of the South at $187 to $188, but are still not established in the North. Bids were nowhere to be found. Significant trade volume will likely be delayed until the second half of the week. 5-AREA LV STR AVG(NEG)PR&WT: $185.89(1454) HIDE&OFFAL: $11.28 +0.01 CARCASS EQV INDEX CHOICE (600-900#) SELECT (600-900#) HEAD SUPPLY (Live) $290.19 $272.12 52,877 DEMAND (Box) $304.93 $288.61 44,764 INDEX VALUE $297.56 +0.51 $280.37 +0.18 97,641 BEEF CUTOUTS CHOICE (600-900#) SELECT (600-900#) $316.93 +1.10 $300.61 +0.44 94.51 LDS CH CUTS / 26.85 LDS SEL CUTS / 6.32 LDS TRIM / 10.72 LDS GROUND DAILY CHOICE/SELECT SPREAD $16.32 TOTAL LOAD COUNT 138 COMPREHENSIVE WEEKLY CUTOUT VALUE: Week ending 08/09 $314.44 +0.04 CUTTER 90% 350# UP C/O: $295.24 +1.62 NAT'L BONELESS BF TRIM: 25.89 lds / Mostly shrply lr on lt dem & offers 90% TRIM: 17 lds: Wtd Avg: $377.15 / Sharply higher FI KILL(WTD) TUE 122(234) WK AGO 122(241) YR AGO 126(244) PREVIOUS DAY BREAKDOWN: MONDAY SH92 / CB20 WEEKLY CANADIAN CATTLE IMPORTS.
