Compared to the last reported sale a month ago, steers and heifers sold sharply higher, surely breaking some all time record highs for the barn. Demand was good for a moderate supply. Cattle futures have been a runaway this week, trading sharply higher again on Thursday. Slaughter cows sold 8.00-10.00 higher.
