Only 1 reported auction this week, too few offered to create a market comparison. Good demand remains for yearling cattle as silage harvest is complete and wet corn harvest has begun cattle feeders are ready to place cattle. The futures contracts regained some of what was lost this week and cash fed cattle managed to trade higher, up to 106.00 in Iowa after last week's decline, this has helped to support the feeder cattle market.
