Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves traded mostly steady to 2.00 lower. Not enough comparable sales on yearlings for an adequate market trend, but a firm undertone was noted. Trading activity was mostly active on moderate to good buyer demand. A large supply of good quality ranch cattle were on consignment today. Colder weather moving into the area has caused buyers to be leery of cattle that are not weaned or short weaned. As a result, those cattle traded at heavy discounts when compared to their long-weaned counterparts. Cows not reported.
