As filed

Compared to the lightly tested market two weeks ago, steers and heifers traded sharply higher, mostly 5.00 to 8.00, spots 10.00 higher. Slaughter cows 5.00 to 10.00 lower. Much better feel to the market this week with much more attractive quality as well. Yearling trade has been pretty light here at the local barn through the winter months but four loads of heavy weight steers were pursued to some pretty impressive prices. Supply moderate and demand moderate to good.
