Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, a true test of 800-900 lb steers sold 3.00 to 4.00 lower, other weights steady to 4.00 higher on few similar sales. Slaughter cows steady. Very heavy supply for this Annual Customer Appreciation BBQ Sale with very active trade throughout the day. In general, the local market outperformed expectations due to very good demand, especially for the 20 straight load lots of yearlings.
