Compared to last week, steers and heifers under 600lbs sold mostly 3.00 to 10.00 lower. The offering this week consisted of mostly calves, some weaned but mostly unweaned or short weaned. Feeder cattle futures traded lower today, after a downturn at the end of last week and some brief recovery at the beginning of this week. Demand was moderate to light on a light supply.
