As filed

Compared to the sale two weeks ago, feeder steers and heifers 2.00-5.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 higher. Demand good to very good. Supply heavy. Large post Thanksgiving run with lots of nice cattle in the yards. The cattle outlook has improved considerably in recent weeks with tighter market ready numbers finally transferring some of the large packer margins into the cattle complex in the form of higher fed cattle. This weeks feedlot trade is expected to be at least steady at 140.00.cwt.
