As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers under 800 lbs 10.00 to 15.00 higher, over 800 lbs 2.00 to 6.00 higher. Feeder heifers 10.00 to 15.00 higher, instances to 20.00 higher on 550-700 lbs. Very good demand for a very large offering of high quality, attractive steers and heifers, ranging from small packages to consignments of 300 head. The market was incredibly active again this week, as the cash fed cattle market continues to make new all-time record highs, up to 205.00. The sale started early again, buyers were on the seats and ready to chase the market higher. The CME Live and Feeder Cattle contracts did not follow the cash markets, as they posted losses of 1.50, but cattle feeders paid no attention as they remain focused solely on the market fundamentals. Outgoing fed cattle are very profitable and cattle feeders want to refill their pens, as they have great hope this bull run continues.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
