FEEDER CATTLE 10344 4078 10446
Compared to last week: Steer calves under 550 lbs 30.00 to 40.00 higher, over
550 lbs steady except 650-700 lbs 15.00 higher. Heifer calves 20.00 to 45.00
higher. Very good demand for all weights of steer and heifer calves, this was
the last marketing week of the calendar year as auction markets won't host
another feeder cattle auction until after the New Year. There is new found
optimism, again, in the feeder cattle market as cattle producers keep their
eyes locked on the strong market fundamentals. Yearling operators were ready
to battle it out to get the light cattle bought that they need to make
yearlings, supplies of those kinds are getting harder to find. Cattle feeders
were willing to give more as well as the cash fed cattle market, and the
futures contracts have been supportive to the feeder cattle market.
