As filed

Compared to last week's higher market, steer calves under 650 lbs lost the gains from last week and sold 5.00-15.00 lower but steers over 650 lbs sold steady to 5.00 higher. Heifers followed a similar trend with the calves under 600 lbs 5.00-10.00 lower and heavier weights steady. Demand was good and the market was active with several attractive groups of mostly calves and a few consignments of yearlings. Supply was heavy.
