Market report for Tuesday, October 28, 2025
Data sourced from USDA AMS
View USDA PDF VersionCompared to last Tuesday the feeder market was lower with a good quality offering. Feeder steers and heifers were 3.00 to 8.00 lower in spots and sharply lower in several comparisons with a good supply and moderate demand. Continued negative pressure from the futures market is limiting buyers interest and the premiums that they are willing to pay quality cattle. Slaughter cows were 2.00 to 4.00 lower with a good supply and slaughter bulls were steady with good demand.
