This week we saw all butcher cows trade at least $10 higher. Good big cows traded from $193-198.50. Feeding types traded from $185-200. Heiferettes were $200-240. Dairy cows were in the $160-170 range. Good bulls were $15-20 higher than last week. Top price was $237.50. There was still solid demand for feeder cattle despite all the drama of President Trumps threat of tariffs. Buyers were all active this week and with less cattle around any hesitation went out the window. Many larger consignments are preparing to move calves so hopefully things do stay strong going forward.
