As filed

Compared to the sale two weeks ago, feeder steers and heifers 3.00-6.00 lower. Slaughter cows steady compared to last week. The feeder market has lost ground since the last trended sale two weeks ago with futures moving considerably lower and cash feedlots sales also lower. Feeder offering was highlighted by two loads of high quality reputation black heifers.
