As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady to 10.00 higher. Demand was good for a moderate to heavy supply that included several loads of yearling steers and heifers and many groups of fall born calves. Cattle futures have taken off higher to start the week and set the stage for an expectant higher cash fed cattle trade this week. Slaughter cows sold 2.00-4.00 higher.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $452.11, low $345.78, median $422.91 across 33 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.
