DTN COMMENTS:  A light trade has been reported in parts of the North at 
$368 dressed, steady with yesterday's transactions, but $9 lower than 
last week's weighted average basis Nebraska. The South remains rather 
quiet following yesterday's live sales at $224 to $225, $4 to $5 lower 
than the prior week's weighted averages. It looks like business is 
essentially done for the week.

Today's slaughter totaled 105,000 head, 3,000 less than last week, and 
14,000 below a year ago. Saturday's kill is estimated at 3,000 head, 
bringing the weekly total to 560,000, even with the prior week, but 
50,000 under 2024. Cattle futures closed sharply higher on both live (up 
145 to 410) and feeder (up 320 to 460) contracts. Beef cutouts are 
expected to close higher with light to moderate box movement.

Following up on yesterday's news, Teamsters Local 577 members at Tyson 
Foods in Amarillo, Texas, reported this morning that they have decided to 
strike. This facility has a daily slaughter capacity of around 5,500 
head.
