As filed

Based on limited comparisons with the sale two weeks ago, feeder steers under 500 lbs steady, over 500 lbs 3.00-5.00 higher. Feeder heifers 5.00-10.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady. Demand moderate to good. Supply light. The feeder market has hopefully seen its fall lows with the feeder index around 5.00/cwt higher than a week ago. Much larger feeder offering expected next week.
