Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded mostly firm to 2.00, with instances of up to 10.00 higher on nicer kinds. Steer and heifer calves traded mostly 20.00 to 40.00 higher. Large gains were in line with the Cattle futures which closed in the green again today following yesterdays bearish corn report. Quality was mostly attractive with a large portion of the supply consisting of ranch raised yearlings and calves off the short wheat. Trading activity was active on good buyer demand. Slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly steady.
