Compared to last week, steer calves less than 500 lbs traded steady to weak while heavier weights and yearlings traded steady to 3.00 higher. Heifer calves less than 550 lbs traded 2.00-4.00 higher with heavier weights steady to firm. Demand was good on a heavy supply. The USDA's Cattle on Feed report was released Friday and reported that compared to a year ago, Inventories were 5 percent lower, Placements 22 percent lower and Marketings 24 percent lower. The report was seen as neutral since numbers were close to expectations.
