Compared to the sale two weeks ago: Yearling steers were sharply lower today. Heifers 750 lbs sharply lower, 850 lbs 1.00-4.00 lower. Cattle futures have been under great pressure, mainly from outside factors, effecting the feeder cattle market at the auctions. CME feeder futures are again 2.00 lower today. Many load lots along with plenty of smaller packages in the offering today. Good demand, especially on the large groups of cattle.
