As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers under 650lbs traded 2.00 to 8.00 higher and steers over 650lbs had little to compare to last week but traded with mostly steady undertones. Feeder heifers traded unevenly steady from 2.00 lower to 4.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly steady. Demand was good for all classes on a moderate supply.
