Compared to last week's light run, steer calves traded 3.00-6.00 higher with heifer calves trading 4.00-8.00 higher. There were too few yearlings last week for an adequate comparison however undertones were steady to firm. The USDA's Cattle on Feed report, released Friday, reported Inventories were only slightly higher than the same time last year with Placements 2 percent lower and Marketings 7 percent higher. Steers averaged 607 lbs at $143.06/cwt while heifers averaged 586 lbs at $129.36/cwt.
