Close to a month ago since last reported sale a market comparison is not applicable. However, a sharply higher undertone was noted. Large crowd on hand for the annual customer appreciation sale and celebrating 72 years of business at Ogallala Livestock Market. The Schow brothers used their talented chants to call the fast-paced sale from start to finish as buyers bid readily on Thursday's supply of fall calves and yearling feeders. All-time highs in the feedlot spectrum, strong CME cattle boards coupled by a tight supply of cattle helped the market leap to these price levels.
