Limited comparisons to the last sale from three weeks ago. Trade was fairly uneven this week as grazers traded steady to 5.00 higher, with the strongest market for steers from 450-575 lbs. Feedlot bound cattle sold instances 6.00 to 8.00 lower as surging grain prices continue to push cost of gain higher. Several sets of reputation heifers were bought for replacement, most ringing up just either side of $1050/head. Supply heavy, demand moderate.
