As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, feeder steers 500-650 lbs 1.00-3.00 lower, other weights steady to 5.00 higher. Feeder heifers near 500 lbs steady, other weights 1.00-5.00 higher. Slaughter cows 1.00-2.00 lower. Demand moderate to good with increased local interest in light cattle to graze. Supply heavy Lots of medium flesh to fleshy calves weaned 0-45 days weighing 550 lbs and up, partly the result of mostly nice days even very late into the fall. Beef cutout values continued to erode Wednesday, pressuring the fed trade which started going backwards late last week.
