Compared to last week steers less than 700 lbs sold steady. Over 700 lbs sold 
4.00 to 10.00 higher. Heifers less than 700 lbs sold 8.00 to 10.00 lower and 
over 700 lbs sold fully steady. Demand was good throughout the week. Most 
auctions noted active internet bidding and buying. Offering included fall 
calves, old crop spring calves and yearling cattle.  Some of this week's 
offerings might have been slated for summer turnout but with the state in a 
drought some cattlemen have opted to sell their grass cattle and to preserve 
their pastures for later use when the rains come along.  Feedlot trade sold 
sharply higher on the week with live sales 10.00 to 11.00 higher at 245.00 to 
246.00 and dressed sales sold 13.00 higher at 385.00.

AgHost Livestock Close

The livestock complex closed mostly lower Tuesday afternoon as traders yearn to see what will develop fundamentally this week before they'll likely advance the contracts any higher. Still no cash cattle trade has developed and asking prices remain elusive at this point.
