Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded mostly 5.00 to 8.00 lower. Not enough comparable sales on steer and heifer calves for a market trend but a sharply lower undertone was noted. Trading activity was moderate. Buyer demand was moderate with the both the CME Feeder and Live Cattle futures closing sharply lower again today. Slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly 1.00 to 2.00 lower. Quality was mostly attractive several loads of reputation cattle, nice heavy bred cows and a few drafts of Akaushi heifer that were tagged value added on offer.
