Recap Cattle Market Report

April cattle pushed to a new contract low and closed sharply higher on the day and the key reversal from an oversold condition could attract some technical buying support. In addition, April cattle put in a contract high on the session before the start of winter and put in a contract low on the first day of spring so natural cycle traders (91 day seasons) may also be attracted to cattle. June cattle tested yesterday's lows early in the day and also closed sharply higher on the day and closed into a new 3-session high. Weakness in the cash market late yesterday and further weakness in the beef market yesterday and today helped to pressure. Talk of low placements for the monthly cattle-on-feed report for Friday helped to provide some underlying support and traders also see active volume in the boxed-beef market yesterday as a positive factor. At 180 loads traded, this is the highest since February 27th. Demand concerns persist as traders see a cold forecast for much of the US as a negative demand factor. Ideas that February cattle placements into feedlots may have been down 9% from last year helped to provide some underlying support. Cash cattle in the southern plains traded $125.00 late yesterday, down $2.00 from last week. Boxed-beef cut-out values at mid-session came in at $192.94, down $1.24 on the session and down from $197.49 last week at this time. Cattle slaughter came in below trade expectations at 119,000 head.
