FEEDER CATTLE 2348 5675 2183
Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers steady. Good to very good
demand for all weights of steers and heifers. The market was active as last
week's cash fat cattle set another new record high price at 265.00. Long
strings of yearlings offered again this week, quality ranged from a little
plain to very attractive, flesh ranged from light and right to carrying a
little too much. CME Feeder Cattle futures lower today, and the back months of
the Live Cattle have cattle feeders concerned.
