Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers sold 15.00-25.00 higher. Steer and heifer calves sold 20.00-40.00 higher. Demand was very good on a moderate supply. Cash prices came close to gaining what was lost last week. Feeder Cattle Futures traded lower early and sharply lower later in the day, after the bulk of today's offering had gone through the ring. The quality of the offering was above average with several large consignments but few large drafts.
