As filed

Compared to last week, on a light test, steers and heifers sold steady to 5.00 higher with some support from the board the last few trading sessions. The majority of the offering was made up of yearlings with a few load lots offered. Demand was moderate to good, supply was light following the holiday weekend. Slaughter cows and bulls sold mostly steady.
