Feeder supply not sufficient to establish a market trend. Slaughter cows steady. Light offering with a nice run expected next week. Futures are trading higher so far this week, underpinned by the pull of the June live contract this is still nearly 20.00/cwt discount to Wednesdays limited cash fed cattle trade at 120.00. A special cow sale followed the feeders with some nice young fall calving cows in the mix.
