Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers trading mostly 6.00-9.00 lower. Steer calves lightly tested with a much lower undertone noted. Heifer calves 4.00-7.00 lower. Demand light. Quality plain to average. Both Feeder and Live cattle contracts on the CME trading sharply lower with limit down shown on a majority of feeder cattle contract months. Muddy conditions experienced in parts of the trading area today after yesterday's light rainfall.
