As filed

Based on limited comparisons with the last trended sale three weeks ago, feeder steers 15.00-20.00 higher. Feeder heifers 20.00-35.00 higher with greatest advance near 525 lbs. Slaughter cows 6.00-8.00 higher. Demand very good. Supply light. Any words to describe the feeder market have long ago been used up as auction prices continue to set new records. Today's stick out quote came on 75 head of 719 lb steers @ 375.00.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $519.42, low $374.69, median $457.99 across 24 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
