As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers sold mostly 3.00 to 7.00 lower and heifers uneven, from 5.00 lower to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows 3.00 to 4.00 higher. Up and down quality, an incoming heat wave and recent volatility in the futures market had buyers pulling back a bit this week. Supply and demand moderate.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $520.32, low $437.00, median $488.53 across 14 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
