As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers steady to 4.00 higher. Feeder heifers 400-550 lbs 5.00-10.00 lower following last weeks sharply higher trade with other weights steady to 2.00 higher. Slaughter cows 1.00-2.00 lower. Demand good. Supply light. This week's offering was highlighted by a nice load of weaned 646 steers @ 272.25/cwt with the remainder of the feeders selling in small packages. Cattle futures were lower Tuesday with beef cutout values also losing some ground while the fed cattle trade moved above 190.00 last week.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $519.42, low $374.69, median $457.99 across 24 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.
