Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded 3.00 to 8.00 higher. Steer and heifer calves traded mostly 10.00 to 15.00 higher on a light test. Slaughter cows and bulls firm to 3.00 higher. Trading activity was active on very good buyer demand. Today's trend falls in line with Friday's bullish Cattle on Feed Report coupled with cattle futures closing higher the past two days. Increased receipts this week were due in part to warmer temperatures finally returning to the trading region, allowing producers to gather and ship.
