Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers under 650 lbs 6.00-12.00 lower, few over 650 lbs 3.00-5.00 lower. Feeder heifers under 550 lbs 5.00-15.00 lower, over 550 lbs 3.00-5.00 lower. Slaughter cows 6.00-8.00 lower. Demand moderate. Supply light. Beef cutouts were lower on Tuesday while cattle futures gave back a bit of Monday's big gains. Not a real good test of the market with most of the calves unweaned and/or fleshy and not enough yearling type cattle for buyers to get much traction.
