The weekly fed steer price reached a record $238.68/cwt in mid-June, up $46.13 (+24%) from a year earlier, marking eight straight weeks of new highs. Feeder steer prices in the Southern Plains also hit record levels near $325/cwt.
Tight cattle supplies and steady demand support the high price level, which benefits feeder buyers through higher input costs. Seasonal softening in summer could still reverse the trend.
