As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves sold steady to 10.00 lower and yearling steers sold steady to 5.00 lower. Heifers sold steady to 5.00 higher. Demand was moderate to good for a moderate supply. Following Friday's sharply lower cattle futures, the start of the week has provided some stability. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady.
