 is never easy, and they did so successfully. August live cattle up 50 cents at 186.42. October live cattle up 32 at 187.17. And December live cattle on Friday down 7 at 188.77. The box beef prices also closed Friday out a little bit higher. Wasn't the case, though, for feeder cattle futures at the CME. August feeders off $1.90 at 261.47.
