Compared to last week: Not enough of anyone class to test trends. High heat and humidity, weekend rains, along with the July 4th holiday limited receipts. A somewhat lower undertone was noted on some feeder cattle however, quality and flesh conditions played a factor. Demand moderate to good as cattle futures opened sharply lower, but by the end of the sale was trading back in the green. Quality plain to average.
