Compared to last week: Feeder steers under 700 lbs 5.00 to 9.00 higher, over 700 lbs steady to 3.00 higher. Feeder heifers 4.00 to 7.00 higher, except 550-600 lbs steady. Very good demand for all weights of feeder cattle as the cash fed cattle market last week topped at 142.00. Cattle feeders approached the feeder cattle market with renewed optimism as they aggressively pushed and chased the feeder market higher. The CME Live Cattle futures contracts are failing to follow the cash fed cattle market higher but cattle feeders aren't letting that fact slow them down.
