Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves sold with higher undertones, yearling feeder steers and heifers steady to 3.00 higher. Very good demand for calves as farmer feeders have gotten a good start on their corn harvest and are ready to take on some calves. Good demand remains for yearlings, supply is very limited as most are cleaned up as it's time for yearlings to be pulled off grass. The fall run is underway now and more calves will be offered in the auctions. Cattle feeders have turned bullish again as the cash fed market pushed back up to 188.00 and the futures complex marches along.
