As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers and heifers sold 5.00 to 10.00 higher, with the exception of heavy yearling steers trading steady to 5.00 lower. Slaughter cows 2.00 to 4.00 lower.Feedlot bound cattle continue to come under some pressure but light grazing type cattle were sold on a very active market, even with a lot of unweaned stock still in the mix. Supply heavy and demand moderate to good.
