As filed

Compared to last week, steers mostly sold 3.00-10.00 higher, but spots 12.00-15.00 higher on yearlings weighing 650-850 lbs. The majority of heifers sold steady except for some heifer calves weighing 450-525 lbs selling 5.00-8.00 higher. Demand was good for a moderate supply that featured several loads of yearlings. Cattle futures have bounced back quite a bit from the lows a couple weeks ago, giving support to the market.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
