DTN COMMENTS: The country remains very quiet this afternoon with bids and 
asking prices very hard to find. It is looking like significant business may 
be wrapped up for the week. A light to moderate trade has been reported in 
most areas this week, and it has been yet another week of very large price 
ranges. Northern dressed trade has had a full range of $165 to $187 (a $22 
difference), while Southern live deals have had a full range of $105 to $118 
(a $13 difference).

Today's slaughter totaled 116,000 head, 5,000 more than last week, but 3,000 
smaller than a year ago. Saturday's slaughter is estimated at 63,000 head, 
bringing the weekly total to 636,000 head, 112,000 greater than the prior 
week, but 29,000 less than 2019. Cattle futures closed moderately to sharply 
lower on live contracts with deferreds faring better than nearbys, off 17 to 
182, while feeder issues ended the day mostly sharply lower, off 55 to 135. 
Beef cutouts are expected to close lower with light to moderate box movement
