    Why is that? Cattle left the yard at 7:30. Had weights/grades by 11. Don't see a problem with that.

    strong, in my mind store cow price never looks to me how there is a margin at the cow finishing game. I have seen more fights and arguments of crap cows than any other animals, lads are completely addicted to the game :)

    Don't pay any heed to Bob, he's always talking down cattle prices.

    believe what you want, get the official prices for next week and see for yourself. I have no reason to talk down prices as I only sell my own animals.

    I'm sure now he's an agent.
    steers €4.00/€4.10
    heifers €4.10/4.25

    TBH I do not think he is, it a long weekend, there is an inch and a half of rain forecast over the next 48 hours. The factory's will only be killing for four days next week. So naturally they will drop quotes to try to drop prices. The Christmass kill starts in 7-10 days time so they want to if nothing else stop prices rising.

    Bob may well be more interested in a easier mart trade like myself.

    Hey Bob,
    I've a few bullocks and heifers nearing a finish, I could just about hold out until 25th December- cash flow, housing, feed etc...
    I had planned on selling the first week of December
    When do you think the price will peak?
    And for a bit of crystal ball gazing, what will it peak at?
