A few asking prices were noted in the South at $185 but they are still not established in the North. Bids remain very hard to find. Significant trade volume will be delayed until sometime Thursday or Friday. 5-AREA LV STR AVG(NEG)PR&WT: No Test HIDE&OFFAL: $11.32 -0.01 CARCASS EQV INDEX CHOICE (600-900#) SELECT (600-900#) HEAD SUPPLY (Live) $278.01 $263.42 63,913 DEMAND (Box) $286.17 $271.28 53,096 INDEX VALUE $282.09 -1.84 $267.35 -1.78 117,009 BEEF CUTOUTS CHOICE (600-900#) SELECT (600-900#) $298.17 -3.72 $283.28 -3.59 100.72 LDS CH CUTS / 21.22 LDS SEL CUTS / 14.58 LDS TRIM / 34.50 LDS GROUND DAILY CHOICE/SELECT SPREAD $14.89 TOTAL LOAD COUNT 171 COMPREHENSIVE WEEKLY CUTOUT VALUE: Week ending 09/20 $303.96 -4.14 CUTTER 90% 350# UP C/O: $280.05 -6.61 NAT'L BONELESS BF TRIM: 29.84 lds / Sharply lr on lt dem & mod offers 90% TRIM: 08 lds: Wtd Avg: $356.17 / Sharply lower FI KILL(WTD) WED 120(363) WK AGO 125(371) YR AGO 126(380) PREVIOUS DAY BREAKDOWN: TUESDAY SH102 / CB23 WEEKLY CANADIAN CATTLE IMPORTS.
