Tuesday, May 17, 2016 - Packer Day
Fed cattle market today was basically steady to 1.00 higher compared to last week. Top today was 133.00. Several cattle in today's run were either marginal on finish and/or heifers showing a little more age than what is desirable.
Cows were also about steady with a weaker undertone because of fill and quality.
