Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers were not well tested, however
undertones were lower. Steer and heifers calves under 700 lbs. were 4.00-12.00
lower with spots 20.00 lower. Demand was moderate on a light supply. The
quality of the offering was less than average compared to the outstanding
offering last week, where four and seven weight steers topped Tuesday's
nationwide sales. Most of the offering was in small drafts with only two drafts
over 20 head compared to 47 drafts of 20 head or more last week. The largest
draft of the day was 207 head of colored-up, slightly fleshy steers weighing
1047 lbs. which sold for 306.00/cwt. A bearish cattle on feed report was
released Friday which had Inventories 2 percent higher, Placements 6 percent
higher and Marketings 10 percent lower. Spot CME Feeder Cattle Futures
responded negatively on Thursday and Friday losing over 15.00 and was unevenly
steady on Tuesday after being closed for Memorial Day on Monday.
