Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold mostly from steady to 3.00 lower, however there were some exceptions as a few bigger drafts of 650-675 lb yearling steers and a part load of fancy 770 lb steers sold with a sharply higher undertone with buyers wanting to get some of the few true grass cattle left. Demand was moderate to good, best for the greener yearlings and the load lots. Supply was moderate. Last Friday's Cattle On Feed report was considered bearish, but buyers seemed to mostly shrug it off Tuesday. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 4.00-6.00 lower.
