Compared to last week moderate run, steers calves less than 700 lbs sold 10.00 
to 12.00 lower. Yearling weight cattle over 700 lbs sold 20.00 lower. Heifer 
calves less than 700 lbs sold 3.00 to 10.00 lower. Most yearlings sold couple 
bucks lower except a flat 8 weight sold 6.00 higher. Slaughter steers and 
heifers sold steady to 2.00 lower. Slaughter cows and bulls old 1.00 to 2.00 
lower. Demand was moderate, instance good for some flyweight steers and 
heifers. CME and negative rumors or quotes have been very hard on the cattle 
sector the last few weeks. With the CME cattle boards dropping and the feeder 
cattle index falling it has been hard for buyers to get a good feel on what 
they can pay for a certain weight class and still try to make a profit on the 
other end.
