DTN COMMENTS: Packer inquiry is improving this morning with a few bids on 
the table at this time. A severe winter storm forecast that is threatening 
much of feeding country just may get trade started a little earlier this 
week. Asking prices are around $128 plus in the South and $205 to $207 in 
the North. Beef cutouts are expected to be lower on light to moderate box 
movement.

NOTE:  Feedlots are encouraged to call DTN with any cattle sales, at
1-800-369-7675, 1-402-399-6402. All sales will be listed anonymously and 
organized by state. All live sales are FOB and set for 1-9 day delivery. 
General trends and summaries from this data will also be posted on the Daily 
Sales Reported to DTN page.
