As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold unevenly steady, with spots 2.00 lower to instances of 5.00 higher with most of the slightly lower money on heifer calves after last week's strong market. Light steer calves from 400-450 lbs sold with a sharply higher undertone. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 2.00 lower. Very attractive offering again this week with the bulk of the cattle weighing 500-650 lbs. Supply moderate, demand moderate to good.
