FEEDER CATTLE 311 294 313
REPLACEMENT CATTLE 46 88 19
SLAUGHTER CATTLE 31 48 81
Compared to last Wednesday the feeder market was spotty but mostly lower with a
plainer than average quality offering. Feeder steers and heifers 600 lbs and
under were mostly 4.00 to 6.00 lower or greater in spots with a good supply and
moderate demand. Negative pressure from the futures market and a plainer
quality offering limited buyers interest and increased the price spreads in
most weight classes. Slaughter cows were 2.00 to 4.00 higher and slaughter
bulls were 4.00 to 5.00 higher with strong demand.
