Compared to last week's light test: Feeder steers 4.00 - 6.00 lower. Feeder Heifers 5.00 - 8.00 lower. Steer calves 4.00 - 6.00 lower. Heifer calves 6.00 - 9.00 lower. Cattle futures sold off sharply last week as grain futures(wheat leading the way) made big gains. Today, maybe some of the bleeding has stopped as cattle futures are trading in the green. With sharply rising fuel prices, cattle delivery cost are on the rise further contributing to the lower market trend. Some moisture did fall over the weekend, but high winds are quickly erasing the moisture that is needed. Quality has been plain thru attractive.
