Compared to last week: Yearling steers and heifers were too lightly tested 
today to develop any market trend. Calves of both sexes sold sharply higher in 
a narrow comparison. Demand was very good for moderate offerings. Yearling 
quality was mostly plain to average today with many cut back cattle seen off 
earlier video sales. Many blemished yearling cattle were seen today. Despite a 
lower quality offering, buyers showed very good demand, with very little price 
difference seen between blemished and non blemished cattle. Calves sold on very 
good demand as well. Calf quality was average to very attractive. Many long 
strings of calves sold today off reputation ranches. Demand for very light 
weight calves was very good as buyers have already started buying calves to 
develop into yearlings. Todays sale featured red angus calves. Several very 
attractive sets sold this week with many sets selling for the same price as 
their black hided counterparts. Demand for heavyweight calves was very good as 
well, as buyers try to find cattle that will finish early enough to market 
against the April board. CME positions traded sharply higher again today with 
most contracts trading over 4.00 higher with some finishing over 5.00 higher. A 
large crowd of buyers was on hand for todays sale and buyers all seemed to have 
homes for all classes and weights. Market activity was active with a large 
crowd on hand for todays sale.
