Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded 1.00 to 2.00 higher. Steer calves were mostly 3.00 lower, with bigger declines on lighter weight cattle. Heifer calves traded mostly 2.00 to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly 1.00 to 2.00 lower. Trading activity was moderate to active on good buyer demand. Quality was attractive with several smaller bunches of calves and loads of yearlings on offer.
