Cash action has been light so far this week, with not much action reported ahead of the holiday. Last week saw sales of $198 and a few up to $200 in the north and $190 in the south. Feeder cattle closed the Wednesday session with contracts up $1.50 to $2.27. The CME Feeder Cattle Index was back down $1.14 on July 2 at $256.44.
