Compared to last week most weights of steer calves sold 5.00 to 10.00 lower. Heifer calves sold 5.00 to 20.00 lower. Yearling steers and heifers sold unevenly steady. Slaughter cows and feeding cows sold steady to 2.00 higher and bulls steady on a thin test. Demand was moderate to good. Interesting week in the cattle market when negative news brought a downward spin to the CME cattle boards. But the cash market at area sale barns is still rather good and selling higher than the summer video sales when record prices prevailed.
