Compared to last week: There were few comparable sales to determine a trend, but overall the undertone was weaker and trade seemed less active to moderate. The high note was on a set of unweaned steer calves weighing 350 and lower coming close to the $600/cwt mark and feeders steers around 700 pounds showing 12.00 higher. All other classes, including slaughter cattle, seemed to slip down some. Fall is in the air with an approaching cold front coming this weekend and remnants of Tropical Storm Lorena possibly pushing Pacific moisture into a large part of the state. Hopefully the moisture helping to jump start a productive wheat season.
