Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded mostly firm to 2.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls traded firm to 2.00 higher. Trading activity was moderate to active on good buyer demand. Hotter than average temperatures accompanied by high winds plagued the region over the weekend, but cooler temperatures and a chance of rain are in the forecast for Wednesday and Thursday.
