Compared to last week, a light offering of feeder cattle this week had 450-550 lb steer calves trading steady to 3.00 lower, with 550-600 lbs selling 4.00-6.00 lower compared to last week's active market, 600-650 lb sold mostly steady over 650 lbs were not well tested. Feeder heifers weighing 450-550 lbs sold on and active market trading firm to 5.00 higher with spots 7.00 higher on the 450-500 lb heifers, with several packages of fancy 475-495 lb heifers trading with a sharply higher undertone, a light test of 550-600 lb traded steady with weights over 600 lbs not tested. Slaughter cows on a much lighter offering than last week sold steady to spots 2.00 lower on the high dressing cows. Demand was moderate on a light offering. CME cattle futures finally had a good day as corn contracts for July and December closed 20-27 cents lower while Feeder cattle closed sharply higher from 3.70-4.40 higher on the front months.
