Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded mostly steady. Not enough comparable sales on steer and heifer calves for a market trend. Trading activity was moderate to active on good buyer demand. Quality was mostly attractive with several bunches of yearlings straight off the wheat, and one large load of program cattle with all of the bells and whistles. Slaughter cows and bulls were too lightly tested for a market trend. The trading region is in need of a rain following the fires last week. Unfortunately, no moisture is in sight with hot and dry conditions forecasted through the rest of the week.
