Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves traded 6.00-12.00 higher with spots 16.00 higher. Yearlings were not well tested however undertones were higher. Demand was very good on a moderate supply. Two-thirds of the offering was under 600 lbs. including one draft of 277 head of 5 weight steers. A couple of packages of seven weight steers broke 2.00 for the first time in years. Yesterday the daily feeder cattle index settled at over $193, which is the highest since September 2015.
