As filed

Compared to the last sale three weeks ago, the best test was on the pot loads of 700-705 lb hfrs off the same consignment as last auction trading near 3.00 lower and 500-550 lb steer calves selling steady to firm, all other weights of feeder calves and yearlings sold with a lower undertone on limited comparisons. Demand was moderate to good with supply moderate with the best demand on the pot loads of 650-705 lb heifers. Both Live Cattle and Feeder Cattle futures continue to see heavy or waves of losses as Feeder Cattle contracts had losses of 5.50 to 6.35 on the front four months. Fed cattle trade last week was mostly 7.00 lower at 248.00 as feeder cattle are starting to feel the pressure. The stick out sales included the pot loads of heifers with 82 hd of thin 652 lb heifers at 414.00; pot load of 698, 702 and 705 lb heifers at 379.00. Slaughter cows were not tested.
