Compared to the last auction two weeks ago, steer calves under 600 lbs were lightly tested but sold with a sharply higher undertone, 600-700 lb steers traded 5.00-10.00 higher and a pot load of 845 lb steers sold with a higher undertone. Feeder heifers weighing 450-600 lbs sold 5.00-7.00 higher with 600-650 lbs selling steady to 2.00 higher and over 650 lbs sold with firm to higher undertone. Slaughter cows on a light offering traded steady to firm. Nice offering of good quality steers and heifers weighing 450-650 lbs sold with good demand as did a pot load of 715 heifers and a pot load of 845 lb steers. July corn closed 37 cents lower with December corn closing 24 1/2 cents lower gave Feeder Cattle contracts a good boost with triple-digit gains from August on out.
