Compared to last week, there were too few cattle in the offering for an adequate comparison however, undertones were steady to weak. Demand was moderate on a very light supply. Supplies were lighter than normal as Winter weather moved across the area. Prices were pretty much all over the place with buyers willing to pay up for longtime weaned, vaccinated and thin fleshed calves. Bawling and fleshy calves were sharply discounted. The Cattle Futures continued their downward trend on Tuesday with Boxed Beef Cutouts also lower than a week ago.
