As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers 5.00 to 10.00 lower, heifers steady to 5.00 lower. Moderate demand for yearlings, light demand for the few packages of spring born calves. Many long strings of attractive yearling steers and heifers, ranging in flesh from light grass flesh to heavier feed yard flesh. Cattle feeders are back on the defensive after last week's downturn in the cash fat cattle market and the falling futures contracts. Much concern exists as outgoing fed cattle post large losses and the futures contracts point towards steeper losses.
