Compared to last week: Only 1 reported auction this week as auction receipts very light as the marketing season winds down, not enough offered to make a comparison to last week. Very good demand remains for all weights of steers and heifers, but with turnout time upon us the best demand is for cattle to run as yearlings on grass. The cash fed cattle market was lower again, and the summer months of the Live Cattle contract are 13.00-16.00 under the cash trade which is putting pressure on the feeder market.
