As filed

Compared to last week feeder steers sold 3.00-5.00 lower, feeder heifers sold 4.00-6.00 lower. Slaughter cows sold steady-2.00 lower, Slaughter bulls sold 2.00-3.00 lower. There was moderate demand for all classes of feeder cattle, with light offerings. As market, trends downward due to Tyson packing plant fire last week and CME futures drop.
