Commentary:

As my old friend Goober from the Andy Griffith show used to say, "Surprise, surprise!" A little time for buyers and feedlots to catch up, and a break in the weather, and poof...the cattle market is better.

From before Christmas, slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to a hint of better. Very light calves sold steady. Calves and feeders were anywhere from steady to ten better. Odd cattle were not discounted as hard as they had been which signals an increase in demand.

Folks, the bulk of the snake river valley is a swamp. Once pens shape up, look for grass cattle buyers to become more aggressive.

"Have a Merry Christmas. It's all you'll get from me. Cause I ain't no Santi Claus. Don't own no Christmas tree. But if wishes was health and money I'd fill your buckskin poke. Your doctor would go hungry and you'd never be broke."

Commentary:

What a tough report to give. We are in the peak of slaughter cow runs so cows and bulls were reasonably lower two cents from before Thanksgiving.

Feeder cattle and calves were from 5-20 lower depending on quality and condition. The futures markets have been continually hammered and the storm here last week did not help buyer enthusiasm.
