As filed

Compared to last week steer calves under 500 lbs sold 3.00-5.00 higher with heavier weights mostly steady. Heifers sold steady except for some loads of yearlings offered that sold with a higher undertone but there have been no similar sales recently to compare to. Demand was good all day for a moderate to heavy supply. Overall, the quality was good throughout the sale and a few loads of attractive yearlings were offered. Feeder Cattle futures have quietly moved higher with all contracts closing above the 1.40 mark on Wednesday. Slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 lower.
