As filed

Compared to last week's sharply lower market, feeder steers weighing 400-600 lbs sold 10.00-15.00 higher, 600-750 lbs traded 3.00-8.00 higher and a good offering of 8 weight yearling steers sold with a sharply higher undertone with no recent comparison. Feeder heifers weighing 400-600 lbs sold 5.00-10.00 higher, over 600 lbs were not well tested. Slaughter cows traded steady to firm. Demand was moderate to good with supply moderate. A good quality offering of steer calves and four pot loads of 815-845 lb steers all sold with good demand on and active market despite CME cattle futures trading with limit lower moves.
