As filed

Compared to last week, all weights of steers and heifers calves under 500 lbs sold 5.00-15.00 higher with spots up to 20.00 higher. Heifers over 500 lbs sold mostly steady except for the 550-600 lb heifers that saw a sharply higher trade last week weren't as well tested and sold mostly 10.00 lower. Demand was good to very good for several reputation strings of fancy new crop calves. Most of the calves came in off the cow but were on a good vaccination program and very good quality. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows sold mostly 3.00-6.00 higher.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $492.10, low $375.17, median $453.16 across 23 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
