Compared to last week: Steer calves under 600 lbs. 9.00 higher on comparable quotes, feeders over 600 lbs. mostly 2.00-5.00 higher. Heifer calves under 500 lbs. steady, feeders and calves over 500 lbs. mostly 3.00-4.00 higher except 650-700 lbs. 6.00 higher. Slaughter cows mostly steady on comparable quotes but a higher undertone noted on lean cows but weighing conditions more favorable. No accurate comparison on bulls but a higher undertone noted on limited receipts with more favorable weighing conditions. Trade active, demand good. A cold, windy, winter storm limiting receipts.
