FEEDER CATTLE 1231 448 1418
REPLACEMENT CATTLE 18 8 139
SLAUGHTER CATTLE 225 128 258
Compared to last Monday the feeder market was mostly lower with an average
quality offering. Good quality feeder steers 500-600 lbs were steady to 2.00
higher with a good supply, while all other weight classes were 4.00 to 8.00
lower or greater in spots with moderate demand. Feeder heifers 400 lbs and
under appeared stronger but with a limited supply, while heifers 450 lbs and
over were 5.00 to 10.00 lower with good supply and limited demand. Buyers are
active in spots and willing to pay premiums for certain weight groups, however
the continued negative pressure from the futures market has limited some buyers
interest which is increasing the price spreads with in groups and classes of
livestock. Slaughter cows were 3.00 to 5.00 lower with a large supply and
slaughter bulls were were steady to 2.00 lower with moderate demand.
