Compared to two weeks ago, a light test of feeders sold with a higher undertone as cattle futures have made substantial gains since the last sale and fed cattle are showing strength. A consignment of quality steers weighing 600-740 lbs highlighted the sale and sold with very good demand. Overall, demand was moderate to good with mostly small packages offered and varying degrees of quality. Supply was light. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady.
