Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers were steady to 2.00 higher, with instances on 1000 lb. steers 5.00 higher. Good demand for this nice summertime offering of high quality, attractive, light fleshed backgrounded steers and heifers. Several long strings which featured full loads and multiple load lots which allowed buyers to make full, uniform, pens of cattle. Yesterday saw CME Feeder Cattle futures post limit higher gains along with another positive day for June Live Cattle futures helped to spur the feeder market along here at the auction. Next feeder cattle auction will be July 11, 2019, expecting 4,000 feeder cattle starting at 8:30 am..
