Compared to last week, steer calves under 450 lbs traded 4.00-8.00 higher with heavier weight steer and heifer calves uneven from 4.00 lower to 4.00 higher. There were too few yearlings last week for an adequate comparison however undertones were steady to weak. Demand was good on a moderate supply. The quality was above average with several large packages in the offering including a 227 head draft of 921 lb. steers which brought 174.00. Feeder Cattle and Live Cattle Futures opened the week lower with additional losses on Tuesday. The USDA's Cattle on Feed Report released last week reported Inventories and Placements slightly above a year ago with Marketings 6 percent higher.
