DTN COMMENTS:  Some bids are now on the table in the North. A light trade 
has been reignited in parts of Kansas and Texas at mostly steady money 
with yesterday's business. Asking prices are around $295 in the North, 
and $184-plus in the South. On Wednesday a light trade was reported in 
parts of the South at $182, fully steady with the prior week's weighted 
averages, while the North remained very quiet. Beef cutouts are expected 
to be lower with light to moderate box movement.
