As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves weighing 400-500 lbs and 550-600 lbs sold steady to firm, with a much lighter test of 500-550 lb steers selling steady to 3.00 lower than last week's very active market, 600-650 lbs sold steady to 3.00 higher and yearling steers over 650 lbs sold with a higher undertone on few comparable weight comparisons. Heifer calves weighing 400-600 lbs sold steady to spots 2.00 higher on the 5 weight heifers and over 600 lbs sold mostly steady. Slaughter cows traded steady. Monday's offering included six pot loads of yearlings weighing 650-870 lbs selling with good demand and a good quality offering of calves weighing 400-650 lbs selling mostly weaned and with shots.

Steers 0–100 lb: high $258.28, low $216.82, median $243.28 across 11 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
