Compared to last week, steer calves weighing 400-500 lbs sold firm on a light test, with feeder steers over 500 lbs trading steady to firm on comparable weights , with instances 1.00-2.00 higher on the 500-550 lb steers and 700-750 lb steers. Feeder heifers weighing 400-500 lbs sold steady to firm on a light test, with 500-600 lb heifers selling firm to 4.0 higher and over 600 lbs were not well tested with last weeks pot load lots. Slaughter cows were mostly average dressing and lean cows trading mostly steady. Demand was good on with best demand on the 700-750 lb steers and pot load of near 850 lb steers. CME Live and Feeder cattle futures had a good day of trading as most near by months had triple-digit gains also feeders seeing some support on recent pressure in the grain market.
