As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold mostly steady. Demand was good for a moderate supply with a nice offering of yearling heifers from a few different consignors highlighting the sale. Cattle futures came roaring back along with the stock market Wednesday afternoon after the announcement of a pause on some tariffs. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 2.00 higher.
