As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, feeder steers under 650 lbs 2.00-8.00 lower, over 650 lbs not well tested. Feeder heifers under 550 lbs 3.00-5.00 higher, over 550 lbs steady, Slaughter cows steady. Demand uneven. Supply light. Plenty of mud and moisture in this area right now. Fed cattle trade looks about steady this week with feedlots current but tightening packer margins maybe capping further upside. The May feeder specials begin next week with the front end fall calves rolling into town.
