Looking Ahead in Farm Marketing Cattle Outlook
After the November break, cattle markets show recovery in all grades. Three buys offer profits: cheap thin cattle to use rough feed and sell in spring. quality cattle with flesh to be sold after January. and good quality cattle to carry into next summer for August or September sale. Each should yield price gains above purchase plus weight gain.
Cattle Move to Market Ahead of Spring Feeding Slump
Traders note cattle gain weight gradually and plan market move soon as many feeders skip spring consignments. The Journal urges timely action and discusses potential benefits of selling before summer or fall.
