Compared to last week:  Steer and heifer calves 20.00 to 30.00 lower.  Good 
demand for calves and yearlings but there was a lot of pressure on the market 
coming from the futures contracts. The futures had been volatile all week until 
Friday when the board opened limit lower, and closed that way. Cattle producers 
are facing great uncertainty now about the future, in spite of positive market 
fundamentals and strong consumer demand. Spring born calves continue to come to 
the auctions in Western ND in large numbers as the fall run continues. Cattle 
feeders are ready to buy these calves, but now it's very difficult to know at 
what price level to buy them at.
