What happened this week: For the week after the show in Shanghai, the sector was pretty much in a ‘sorting out’ mood and with many players returning from Asia most were busy with the paperwork that was waiting for them on their desks. Many of the people visiting Shanghai obviously came home with Asian flu, in this case less a physical problem than a mental one. This seems the only possible explanation for how readily abattoir prices for male hides were accepted.
