No trends as this was a special Carlot Feeder Cattle sale and BBQ. Trade active with good demand and good buyer attendance both ringside and on the internet . Feeders on the CME also closed mixed, with 5 to 15 cent givebacks in Sept and Oct contracts to 32 to 55 cent gains in the deferreds. The CME Feeder Cattle Index for 9/20 was $153.77 after a 2 cent bump.
