As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers 4.00-8.00 lower. Feeder heifers steady to 4.00 lower. Better quality or conditioned feeders sold steady to higher. Feeder market very uneven and almost searching for a direction today. Cattle futures opened the day higher only to fall back into the red by late in the sale. Demand moderate to good and buyers more selective in this down market. Quality plain thru attractive. Steer and heifer calves 20.00-30.00 lower. All classes of cattle had very few friends today. CME feeder cattle contracts for all months in 2027 are now trading below 3.00. Lack of grass and available pond water continue to weigh heavily on demand, leaving producers across the trading area with little interest in buying cattle at this time. Quality did play a role, also, as most cattle were plain.
