As filed

Compared to the last tested auction from two weeks ago, feeder steers and heifers traded near steady. Monday's auction featured several large strings of yearling cattle, whereas the auction from two weeks ago consisted of mostly calves. Cold and dry weather is forecasted to set in, and this should make for some good conditions to move and market calves over the next couple of weeks before the traditional holiday shutdown.
