Compared to two weeks ago: Limited comparable sales on feeder steers and heifers, but a much higher undertone was noted. Steer and heifer calves traded mostly 2.00 to 5.00 higher, with instances of 7.00 to 10.00 higher on heavier weight calves. Slaughter cows and bulls traded firm to 1.00 higher. Trading activity was mostly active on good buyer demand. Quality was very attractive, with several nice loads of yearlings on offer. According to the US Drought Monitor, drying soils, high evapotranspiration, and worsening SPI and SPEI drought indicators prompted expansion of D0-D3 in western parts of Oklahoma and Texas.
