Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves sold 3.00-6.00 lower with spots 10.00 lower. Yearlings were not well tested. Demand was light on a moderate supply. The Cattle Futures traded sharply lower today, putting the brakes on the cash feeder market. Quality was average at best with the largest draft 42 head and only 8 drafts of 20 head or more. However total receipts were the largest since September.
