As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves under 600 lbs sold 5.00-15.00 lower and heavier weights sold steady. Heifers sold steady. Demand was moderate to good for a moderate supply. The demand for the calves is still good, but buyers aren't quite as aggressive as they were a few weeks ago with the global uncertainty over the war with Iran and a lower futures market over the last couple weeks. However, fed cattle are selling at all time highs and cattle futures were higher Tuesday. Heavy rains fell across the region Monday night. Slaughter cows sold 3.00-5.00 higher, bulls steady.
