Compared to a week ago steers 500-700 lbs. sold 3.00 lower to 1.00 higher, while the 750-850 lb. steers were 3.00 higher to 4.00 lower. Heifers 400-600 lbs. were steady to 5.00 higher and the 600-800 lb. heifers were steady to 2.00 lower. In active trading, demand was good for the moderate to heavy offerings.
