Compared to last week, the top quality steers and heifers traded mostly 5.00 to 10.00 higher, with some of the plainer types and unweaned cattle steady. Slaughter cows 4.00 to 7.00 lower. Still no support from the futures market here late in the week but the calf trade pretty well shook that off, particularly the more attractive, reputation kind of cattle. Overall, the local market had a better feel to it than that of a week ago. Supply moderate, demand moderate, good in spots.
