At the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, live and feeder cattle ended the day lower and sharply lower pressured by the higher move in corn. October live cattle closed $.60 lower at $143.05 and December lives closed $.80 lower at $149.10. September feeders closed $2.05 lower at $182.20 and October feeders closed $2.12 lower at $183.40.
It was a really quiet Friday for direct cash cattle business. There was just a little clean-up trade reported at $230.
