As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, feeder steers and heifers under 600 lbs 4.00-10.00 lower, over 600 lbs steady except some fleshy 3.00-6.00 lower. Slaughter cows 10.00-12.00 lower. Demand uneven. Supply moderate. Moderate to good demand for yearlings and weaned calves as the cattle market outlook continues to be pretty good with moderating fed numbers on the horizon, rising cutout values and strong beef demand. However the current large movement of feeder cattle and seasonal health challenges are putting pressure on the trade and making the less desirable cattle (lower quality, fleshy, unweaned) very much a buyers market.
