As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers under 500lbs traded mostly steady to weaker on a light supply and steers over 500lbs were not well tested. Feeder heifers traded unevenly steady from 2.00 lower to 3.00 higher. Demand was moderate on a light supply with fewer quality yearlings and long weaned feeders in the offering this week.
