As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers and heifers 6.00-12.00 lower based on a limited market test. Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 lower. Demand light to moderate. Supply light. Volatility is the word in the feeder market as futures contracts have blown through previous lows with the return of the coronavirus to the front of the news cycle. On the bright side, domestic demand remains strong with fed harvest rates running well above a year ago.
