Compared to last week: Feeder steers unevenly steady, except 550-700 lbs 5.00 to 7.00 higher. Feeder heifers 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Very good demand for all weights of steers and heifers as the cash fed cattle topped at 162.50 this week, giving cattle producers much optimism for the year ahead. The market is the most active, however on those light fleshed cattle to background on grass this summer as the grazing outlook is good and the market outlook even better. Another large winter storm in the forecast for the coming week which has already canceled most auctions.
