As filed

Compared to the sale two weeks ago, feeder steers under 550 lbs 2.00-6.00 higher, 550-700 lbs steady to 3.00 lower and over 700 lbs 1.00-2.00 higher. Feeder heifers under 600 lbs 2.00-4.00 lower, over 600 lbs steady to 2.00 lower. Demand uneven. Supply moderate. Seasonally large price spreads seen depending on quality, condition and weaning status. Also large disparity seen by weight class in spots with some 500 lb steers dollaring up more than their 600 lb brothers. Cattle futures continued their positive week Wednesday following a multi-week downward spiral.
