USDA Feeder and Stocker Cattle Summary
ST. JOSEPH - Oct 10/08 - SNS -- Week ending market conditions for feeder and stocker cattle marketed across the United States were summarized by the USDA.
NATIONAL FEEDER & STOCKER CATTLE SUMMARY - WEEK ENDING 10/10/2008
RECEIPTS: Auctions Direct Video/Internet Total
This Week 222,500 25,600 1,300 249,400
Last Week 241,500 31,400 50,600 323,500
Last Year 322,500 46,300 36,300 405,100
Compared to last week, feeder cattle prices were sharply lower again this
week along with most other commodity markets. Calves and yearlings traded
3.00-8.00 lower with several auctions reporting certain weights and classes
that sold as much as 10.00 lower. The American financial sector has yet to
find any bottom-side support and this week news surfaced that the economies
of several other wealthy countries are also struggling. The entire free
market system is suffering from a lack of confidence as the Dow Jones
Industrial Average tumbled to its lowest point since May of 2003 on Friday as
it dropped at one time below 8,000. The close on Thursday of 8,579 was a 39
percent loss from the all-time high of 14,164 points just one year ago to the
day. Demand was light for most classes of feeder cattle this week and
receipts were light as many sellers decided to wait until the dust settles to
market their cattle. Order buyers were very quiet this week, while wheat
backgrounders in the Southern Plains and farmer feeders in the Northern
Plains were able to pick through the offerings and select exactly what they
wanted at prices well below what they had earlier expected. This resulted in
extremely wide price ranges between class and quality classifications and
weight groups. Plainer quality, off-colored, and unweaned bulls or heifers
found very little interest and suffered the full decline while fancy steers
are still selling quite respectfully. This has happened for several weeks
and the usual 8.00-12.00 discounts are now routinely 30.00-40.00. Direct fed
cattle sales were also sharply lower this week with Texas and Kansas selling
showlists 4.00 lower from 91.00-93.00 and Nebraska 6.00 lower from 88.00-
91.00. Attitudes remain bearish and most cattlemen can’t help but wonder how
bad the feeder cattle wreck could be if cattle numbers were not so tight.
This fact does give hope for the future if the economy stabilizes and fears
start to be replaced by capitalism ideas of taking advantage of depressed
prices. In fact, some cattle feeders raised their head enough this week to
notice that the corn market has fallen enough to hedge a decent profit on
cheaper cost-of-gains. Lower prices hurt cattle backgrounders and feeders
initially but require less investment on the next set of cattle and more
upside opportunities when the market turns around, while cow/calf producers
are forced to tighten their belts once again. This week’s reported auction
volume included 38 over 600 lbs and 40 heifers.
