FEEDER CATTLE 773 574 663
REPLACEMENT CATTLE 7 10 1
SLAUGHTER CATTLE 116 48 141
Compared to last Monday the feeder market was stronger with a good quality
offering. Good quality feeder steers and heifers were 6.00 to 10.00 higher or
greater in several spots with a good supply and strong demand. Yearling steers
and heifers appeared sharply stronger as well, but with limited head to head
comparisons. Double digit gains in the future market over the past week and
cooler weather conditions have increased the premiums paid and demand for all
classes of feeder cattle. Slaughter cows were steady to 2.00 higher with a
good supply and slaughter bulls were steady with good demand.
