Compared to last Wednesday, feeder steers under 500 lbs 2.00-5.00 lower, over 500 lbs steady to 3.00 higher. Feeder heifers 2.00-5.00 lower. Slaughter cows 2.00-4.00 lower. Demand uneven. Supply moderate. Best demand seen on steers near 600 lbs with greatest decline on heifers near 600 lbs. Beef cutout values seem close to carving out a bottom which should help fed cattle sellers that are trying to advance the market 1.00-2.00/cwt this week.
