As filed

Compared to the last trended sale two weeks ago, feeder steers under 550 lbs 4.00-8.00 higher, over 550 lbs steady. Feeder heifers steady. Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 lower compared to last week. Demand good. Lighter offering than expected as heavy rain in the area and to the south held up movement. Large run with several front end consignments expected next week.
