As filed

Compared to the last tested auction from two weeks ago, feeder steers under 700 lbs 5.00-10.00 higher, over 700 lbs steady to 2.00 higher. Feeder heifers steady to 3.00 higher. The cash feeder cattle are slowly advancing as they try to catch up with the optimistic cattle futures prices. The five weight steer calves were particularly strong as they traded with prices not seen in many months.
