Friday, April 28th, 2017MARKET REPORT Friday, April 28h, 2017 “SPECIAL ALL HOLSTEIN & DAIRY CROSS STEER/HEIFER FEEDER SALE” SALE SUMMARY: Total Headcount: 1,207 Holstein Feeders MARKET REPORT Friday, April 28h, 2017 “SPECIAL ALL HOLSTEIN & DAIRY CROSS STEER/HEIFER FEEDER SALE” SALE SUMMARY: Total Headcount: 1,207 Holstein Feeders Here this past Friday, we had a really nice run of Holstein Feeders. The stands were full, and demand and momentum was in full swing. Market wise, we saw the largest Holstein market movement in the northern direction; in comparison to the past year and a half. Holstein feeders were definitely stronger here Friday, and quite a bit stronger at that. The light Holstein feeders really caught fire, having some light 200# Holstein steers hitting the $1.62 mark. Holsteins in the 300# range got up into the mid $140’s/cwt. The market movement was spread throughout all weight classes. 5 & 6 weight Holsteins on the market top were in the upper teens into the low twenties. Cattle weighing in the 7’s all the way through 1,050# were $90-$103. We’ve been awaiting a positive market swing like this for quite some time now. Things are optimistic, the weather is warm, the grass is green; and most importantly, the constant unknown of daily market fluctuations is hopefully becoming a distant memory. You good folks keep doing what you do best; providing the best product in the entire world, raised right in our own backyards. We tip our hats to you folks, and thank you all very much. Here is the market, as well as the next three upcoming Feeder Cattle Sales.
