As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, feeder steers and heifers under 550 lbs steady to 3.00 higher, over 550 lbs 2.00-8.00 lower. Slaughter cows 2.00-3.00 higher. Demand good. Supply moderate. Attractive feeder offering with lots of good quality weaned calves carrying two rounds of shots along with some consignments of greener yearling cattle in the mix. Probably a better feeder trade than expected given the volatility and downward movement in feeder futures in recent weeks with the latest feeder index down 4.71/cwt.
