As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steer and heifer trade was uneven, mostly 3.00 lower to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows 3.00 to 6.00 higher. Buyers were still pretty aggressive this week even given the recent roller coaster ride that ag commodity futures have been on. Supply moderate, demand moderate to good.
