Compared to two weeks ago: Feeder steers steady to 5.00 lower. Feeder heifers under 850 lbs 2.00 to 5.00 lower, except 600-700 lbs 6.00 to 10.00 lower, over 850 lbs sold with a firm to higher undertone. Moderate to good demand for this large offering of yearling steers and heifers. The market was active throughout the sale and across all weight groups as there were many buyers competing to get cattle bought. The daily cattle slaughter reached 110,000 again today which is helping to brighten the mood of cattle feeders, but still this total is 12,000 fewer than a year ago. Cattle feeders are still apprehensive about the coming months as June Live Cattle futures still sits 20.00 under the cash trade. There were many long strings of yearlings, many full loads and multiple load lots, flesh condition mostly moderate, quality was a little uneven allowing buyers of all qualities plenty of selection. Slaughter cows and bulls mostly steady.
