Alberta Beef Producers Daily Report: Alberta CA
Alberta direct cattle sales Tuesday saw no new trade to report. This week's showlist has been compiled with volumes smaller than the previous week. There is a chance scattered trade could develop by this afternoon. A lot of cattle were marketed last week which should moderate selling pressure this week. Over the past four weeks fed prices have moved from the low 160's to the low 150's and are now trading within 3.00 of their lows set back in February.
