No recent test for a comparison of feeder steers or heifers.
Demand moderate to good.
Cattle futures took a dive late last week and into Monday and then recovered 
some, followed by another sharp down day.
Markets turned upward late in the week and have yet to look back.
These kind of swings are making it difficult for buyers to price cattle 
and sellers to determine their values.
 
Supply included:  100% Feeder Cattle (75.3% Steers, 24.7% Heifers).
Feeder cattle supply over 600 lbs was 92%.
Unless otherwise noted, Feeder Cattle prices FOB based on net weights 
after a 2% shrink or equivalent, with a 8-18 cent slide > 600 lbs.
and up to a 25 cent slide < 600 lbs.
