As filed

Compared to a light run last week, steers and heifers took another big jump, trading 10.00 to 20.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 higher. Not a huge offering this week ahead of next week's Annual Angus and Angus Factored Calf and Yearling Sale, but quality was excellent and the market could have withstood a much larger run. Supply light, demand very good.
