Compared to last week: Slaughter steers Choice 2-3 sold 3.00 to 5.00 higher, Choice 3-4 8.00 to 10.00 higher, heifers 8.00 to 10.00 higher. Holsteins sold 1.00 to 5.00 higher. Demand for this eye appealing offering of slaughter cattle was good. Non implant cattle were in high demand and brought a significant premium compared to last week. Black hided cattle are the most sought after, creating wide price gaps. Several nice loads of cattle offered, with most being hauled in yesterday. Fed cattle trade is toying with price levels the market has not seen since 2015. It's been more than 7 years since producers seen $2k for finished cattle. If beef demands continues to be strong the market could push further north. Estimated dressed cost 234.00 to 242.00. CME Live cattle higher, while corn is lower. Slaughter cows steady to 4.00 higher. Bulls 3.00 to 5.00 higher

Traditional slaughter weight lambs steady. Demand for this nice offering was moderate. Slaughter ewes in light test sold with lower undertones.
