Compared to last week, feeder receipts were too light for an adequate price comparison, but steers and heifers sold with a weaker undertone after last week's impressive larger run. Demand was moderate to light.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $502.40, low $370.33, median $436.30 across 34 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
