Compared to two weeks ago: Feeder steers and heifers 5.00 - 8.00 lower. Steer calves 8.00 - 10.00 lower. Heifer calves lightly tested and steady to 3.00 lower. Demand light to moderate for all classes. Cattle futures have been trading in the red for some time and are down sharply again today. Slaughter cattle trade mostly steady in the south last week while beef prices declined. More new crop calves beginning to show and demand is light for these. Quality plain to average.
