As filed

Compared to last week: Yearling cattle were all too lightly tested to develop any market trend. Yearling quality was mostly average. Most yearlings were cut backs off summer video sales. Steer calves under 550 lbs sold mostly 10.00-30.00 lower, with a few high quality partial load lots selling fully steady. Steer calves over 550 lbs sold mostly 10.00-20.00 lower. Heifer calves all sold 10.00 to 20.00 lower, with a few high quality partial load lots selling fully steady. Demand was light to moderate for moderate to heavy offerings. CME feeder cattle positions traded limit lower 3 days of the last 7 days. This caused many buyers to pause as they bid on offerings. Demand for offerings was noticeably lighter this week compared to last sale. Spreads were large this week as fewer buyers were in the stands and willing to buy cattle. Small packages of calves, particularly packages of 10 head or less, sold back sharply from larger consignments this sale. This led to very wide price spreads in places. Even internet bidding, which has been outstanding over the last few sales was drastically quitter this sale compared to last week. Market activity was slow to moderate as a result. Weigh up cows sold on moderate demand for light to moderate offerings. Slaughter cows were too lightly tested to develop an accurate market trend, however lower undertones were noticed. Feeding cows sold fully steady in a narrow comparison. Slaughter bulls sold generally steady in a narrow comparison. Young age cows suitable to feed or rebreed sold on mostly good demand. Quality this week was mixed from plain to attractive. Young age cows sold generally steady in a narrow comparison.
