DTN COMMENTS: All is quiet in the country this morning, asking prices are 
around $186 to $187 in the South, but not established in the North. Bids 
remain very elusive in all areas. Significant trade volume will likely be 
delayed until Thursday or later. Beef cutouts are expected to be mixed 
with light to moderate box movement.

NOTE: Feedlots are encouraged to call DTN with any cattle sales, at
1-402-461-3561. All sales will be listed anonymously and organized by 
state. All live sales are FOB and set for 1-9-day delivery. A weekly 
summary from this data will be posted on the Weekly Cattle Sales Reported 
to DTN page and will be left up for the entire week for reference 
purposes.
