As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, feeder steers under 500 lbs 3.00-6.00 higher, over 500 lbs steady to 2.00 higher. Feeder heifers steady except several near 500 lbs fully 3.00-6.00 higher. Slaughter cows 1.00-3.00 higher. Demand good. Supply moderate. Lots of nice quality cattle this week, The feeder market continues to be strong, especially in the lighter weight cattle, while the feedlot trade is a struggle as the industry is once again hampered by worker shortages and reduced slaughter volumes,
