Compared to the auction from last week, feeder steers and heifers mostly steady, except heifers over 550 lbs trading 5.00-10.00 higher. A few more yearlings in the mix this week with fantastic prices on anything that walks in the ring. Cattle futures sharply higher across the board on Tuesday with the feeder cattle futures more than 60.00 straight up from their low set back last November. Demand was very good and supply moderate.
