Hi - I have a dumb question. I am new to watching the cattle market. I have been looking at the USDA Market news cattle reports. Each line looks something like this:
Feeder Steers
Head=11
Wt Range =455
Avg Wt = 455
Price Range= 141.00
Average Price= 141.00
So what is the seller getting per lb? If you do the math on this it is .31 cents a lb - am I doing something wrong? I thought prices were up around $1.00 a lb?
