Compared to last week: No comparisons to make as only 1 reported auction last week, most auction locations did not host a feeder cattle auction last week due to the Thanksgiving holiday. Very good demand for all weights of feeder cattle as cash fed cattle rose up to 192.00, leaving a 5.00 basis over the CME Dec Live Cattle futures contract. Cattle feeders were willing to chase the market to get the cattle bought that they need.
