As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers and heifers under 550 lbs 2.00-5.00 higher, over 550 lbs steady to 2.00 higher except several fleshy/unweaned calves 2.00-4.00 lower. Slaughter cows steady 1.00 higher. Demand moderate to good. Supply heavy. Large runs around the circuit the past couple of weeks which usually results in resilient demand for the higher quality cattle and more picking and choosing among the rest. The fed trade is likely to be lower this week with cutout values rapidly dropping seasonally, carcass weights still troublesome and more manageable numbers still a ways down the road.
