Compared to last week, steers traded unevenly steady mostly from 5.00 higher to 5.00 lower and heifers sold 5.00 higher. However, some bigger spreads were seen on the steers side with 400-500 lbs 7.00-10.00 lower on lighter demand and 600-650 lb steers as much as 10.00 higher when comparing last weeks run of mostly un-weaned calves to several weaned cattle this week. Demand was good for the higher quality cattle and moderate to light for plainer kind. Corn continues to trend higher and cattle futures lower. Supply was moderate to heavy. Slaughter cows sold 2.00-4.00 higher, bulls 3.00-5.00 higher.
