As filed

Compared to the last tested market five weeks ago, steers sold mostly 5.00 to 10.00 higher and heifers all sharply higher, making up some ground with their mates to narrow the steer:heifer price spread. Outstanding buyer activity as the local barn quickly caught up with the big jumps the cash feeder market has taken since the last sizeable auction. Good quality and condition throughout the day as well, with some unweaned strings in the mix but discounts minimal for the most part. Several loads of backgrounded heifers were easily absorbed, setting some new highs along the way. Supply heavy, demand very good.
