As filed

Compared to last week, a light test of steer calves under 600 lbs sold steady to firm, with a much lighter offering of steers this week weighing 650-800 lbs selling mostly 2.00-4.00 lower and pot load of steers weighing 892 lbs and pot load weighing 910 lbs selling firm to 2.00 higher compared to pot loads last week of very similar weights. Feeder heifers had the best test weighing from 450-600 lbs trading firm to 5.00 higher and over 600 lbs were very lightly tested. Slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 higher, with the most advance on the high dressing cows. Demand was good on a moderate supply. CME Cattle Futures turned green on Monday to start the week with triple-digit gains as cattle futures were in need of a hopeful correction.
