As filed

Compared to last week's heavy volume auction this week had much lighter receipts with 450-500 lb steer calves selling steady to 5.00 lower compared to last week's sharply higher and very active market, 500-550 lb were not well tested, with 550-700 lbs trading firm to 3.00 higher, spots 5.00 higher on the 6 weighs steers, a pot load of 730 lb steers sold steady with last week and a pot load of 850 lb steers were not tested but sold with a firm undertone. Feeder heifers weighing under 550 lbs sold with a firm undertone compared to comparable sales of kind and quality with several groups and strings of fancy/thin blk heifers selling on a very active market, 550-675 lb heifers traded with a weak undertone on a much lighter offering. Slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 lower. Demand was good on a good quality offering of steer and heifer calves weighing 450-650 lbs, the 450-500 steer calves failed to reach last week's highs but still sold on and active market.
