Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady to 5.00 lower with the exception of some yearling heifers trading 1.00 to 3.00 higher. Market activity picked up late in the morning as lot size and quality improved. Most weights and classes traded comfortably in the lower end to middle of last week's price spreads with the losses coming off the top side of the range. Supply moderate to heavy, demand moderate.
