As filed

No recent sales for a good comparison, however a lower undertone was noted as has been the case all around the circuit since the sharp selloff in the cattle futures that started last week. The demand was surprisingly good with active bidding, even with some buyers out of the market. Supply consisted of mostly calves and short yearlings with no loads of heavy yearlings offered to test prices.
