DTN COMMENTS: Some light dressed trade is developing in parts of Nebraska 
this morning at $275, steady with yesterday, but $4 lower than last week's 
weighted average. Some bids have been renewed in Texas, albeit at lower 
money than the rest of this week's business. Some asking prices remain 
firm around $176 in the South, and $276 in the North. Beef cutouts are 
expected to be lower, with light to moderate box movement.

So far this week, a few dressed deals were reported in Nebraska at $275, 
$4 lower than last week's weighted averages. A rather light live trade has 
also reported in most parts of cattle feeding country at $173 to $175, 
mostly $175, $2 lower than last week's weighted averages.
